Wild Thang's Team Getting Into The Christmas Spirit On The Last Day 

Christmas is the time when we can all make a difference which is why this year our festive themed Christmas jumper day  we raised money for the John Haynes Foundation which is very closeto Wild Thangs heart, with our team having known John before his passing both personally and professionally.

The foundation itself is focused on delivering professional coaching and mentoring, helping individuals build resilience so they can realise their own potential and ‘Fly With The Eagles’. Our cake sale, raffle and best Chrimbo jumper competition raised a total of £400 so we’d like to thank our generous staff for contributing and helping make these donations possible, you’re the best.

Our final little bit of Christmas cheer was to encourage our team to donate food items to help those less fortunate so this year we delivered to the fantastic Fans Supporting Food Banks Initiative just before we finished for our festive shutdown. Hopefully you can see we take our CSR seriously as a company and its our Wild Thang way ethos that means we will always try and make a difference in society and our community.

Wild Thang are incredibly proud to have supported and sponsored this incredible event by providing all design and branded marketing collateral required for the John Haynes foundation and gala dinner. The John Haynes Tribute dinner and legacy foundation launch took place at the Liverpool Hilton Hotel on the 18th of September.

The Gala Dinner dressed to impress at the Liverpool Hilton Hotel. 

Hosted by Roger Jonas with speeches by Everton FC CEO. Denise Barrett Baxendale and Liverpool Metro Mayor Steven Rotheram, with a special menu created by Paul Askew and the Hilton team.The evening raised over £30,000 which will see funds officially establish the foundation for the longer term and develop the programs that will help others to be the best versions of themselves and truly ‘Fly With The Eagles’.

The late great John Haynes who helped so many 'Fly With The Eagles'.

It was a truly spectacular night and very special moment for the Wild Thang team to celebrate the life of a friend and master mentor coach John Haynes but also maybe more importantly his legacy. Before his passing for nearly a decade John had become an integral part of our company family helping Wild Thang and all our employees better themselves on a personal and professional level.

The host with the most Roger Jonas.

Andrew Dwerryhouse Wild Thang MD commented: “John Haynes was a true mentor and friend to both me and the rest of the Wild Thang team for many years and made a huge difference in the team and companies culture. John was a very special individual and wanted to make a difference in the lives of whoever he met. Whatever the subject or session about leadership or resilience you would come out it feeling 100% more positive and wanting to take on the world.

John Haynes partner Linda Adkins who gave her support and blessing for the foundation to be formed.   

This is why it felt so important and right to help and support both the formation of the John Haynes Foundation by becoming a trustee, but in a wider way by making sure Wild Thang as a company supported the foundation from a branding and marketing perspective, our team of directors felt this was only right to give back a little piece of what John has given us. From the outset we offered Wild Thangs support to provide all the collateral for the foundation and gala dinner which we are proud of delivering.

All the event collateral and merchandise was lovingly designed and printed by Wild Thang

At each stage we gained approval throughout the design process from John’s partner Linda, the family and the rest of the trustees, we think we have achieved something genuinely world class from design to production, hopefully the photographs of the evening tell the story of a spectacular and successful night that surpassed everyone’s expectations.

A huge thank you from Linda and family, patrons and trustees to everyone who attended, donated and supported the John Haynes Foundation launch, you truly are all eagles. John is gone but never forgotten, his legacy will live on with its aim of inspiring and helping 1 million people to have the resilience and belief to ‘Fly With The Eagles’.

Liver Bird’s MERCHANDISE IN ACTION

We simply love it when people share their great branded merchandise in action on social media especially when the photograph really pops. Wild Thang think this is a great example of how branded merchandise is creating the best possible exposure and helping them stand out from the crowd by raising brand awareness through a coordinated physical branding approach. This was actually a charity midnight walk aptly named the ‘Liver Bird’s Midnight Walk’ for the Roy Castle Foundation with every participant receiving a t-shirt & can anyone spot the great branded curved frame exhibition backdrop.

Never underestimate the power of the photograph to capture the moment of any campaign, event or product & deliver real impact, think PR exposure, think the endless social media sharing on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook & Snapchat. We know that its critical for any charity organisation to raise awareness to help drive exposure that will hopefully then in turn create that end donation.

We hope this gives you a little inspiration to create some world class merchandise for yourself and really help your brand, company or organization stand out from the crowd. Please remember we are here to help with expert branded clothing, merchandise and print advice!
