Method reaches Big Ben:
this week we got invited to the Houses of Parliament to mark World Asthma Day and the launch of Missing Out – A report by Asthma UK on the children missing out on childhood because of asthma. needless to say we spread the good clean method love to all and one whilst discussing the serious issues around the most prevalent of all childhood illness.
we got involved with Asthma UK after getting emails and letters from many people thanking us for making products that don’t aggravate their or their children’s asthma and this week is official Putting Asthma in the Limelight week so we have been fundraising with our fantastic online shopping partner Ocado and donating 11% of all sales this week to Asthma UK’s great work with educating around asthma issues and supporting the families of 1 in 11 children that have Asthma.
Leaving you with a couple of stats to inspire you to go and raise some money with lime
87% of children with asthma have missed school because of their asthma
90% of children said asthma stopped them doing exercise
Every 16 minutes a child is admitted to hospital in the UK because of their asthma
– help them breathe easier and raise some funds for Asthma www.asthma.org.uk/methodproducts
