Shock, horror, we've done it - it's so often the case of the cobblers shoes always being the ones in need of repair. Never more so than in an agency busy producing great work for clients, but we finally bit the bullet and the zerofiftyone identity is now firmly in place. There's a highly polished new brochure available too - if you'd like one just contact David Smith.

In what is a unique departure for Claus International plc, CEO 'Santa' Claus chose zerofiftyone to produce response letters to children in both Colchester and Haywards Heath. In a trial 'pre-outsourcing exercise', children visiting Lion Walk in Colchester and The Orchards shopping centre in Haywards Heath are encouraged to write a gift request note to Santa. zerofiftyone sensitively handled both the writing and design of the piece whilst individual centre managers are responsible for fulfillment. Early results are encouraging and a spokes-elf from Claus HQ reported the big boss to be 'ho-hoing' all the way to Lapland. The client acting on behalf of Claus International is Friends Provident. Innovative ladies fashion group BOX2 have appointed zerofiftyone to give their brochure a thoughtful makeover. BOX2 sells its quality European fashion clothing in franchised stores throughout Britain and by catalogue. Dealing in sizes 14 to 30 it's BOX2's philosophy to provide real style for women who don't necessarily meet the regular high street criteria - and they're spectacularly successful! The catalogue now reflects a wider age group and is styled in a far more contemporary way. Working closely with the client the agency looks forward to helping BOX2 grow its brand and position to become market leaders in this very individual fashion sector.
Flytipping Image Pr Successes sub Clean Kent educates potential Flytippers
The Clean Kent Campaign was launched in May 2004, to tackle the issues of littering and fly-tipping, as well as graffiti and dog fouling. The Campaign has seen some great successes this year. This month Clean Kent teamed up with the Environment Agency to educate tradesmen on their responsibilities as waste carriers. The aim was to try and reduce illegal activities such as flytipping, in exchange the willing participants were given a free breakfast. The initiative was a great success achieving local radio and newspaper coverage.

Kent County Council reduces Landfill Waste
Westgate Road, Faversham is the home of an unusual joint experiment by Kent County Council and Swale Borough Council. Eight specially selected families all agreed to use cloth nappies instead of disposables for one month as part of an experiment to try and reduce the amount of waste in landfill sites in the county. In the Borough of Kent alone over 8 million nappies are thrown away per year! The PR for this campaign brought great results achieving coverage on Meridian TV, radio stations, newspapers and magazines around the county.
