Here is what was written about farrows, you can also read about our award by clicking here:

"Norwich graphic design firm Farrows impressed the judges with its innovative use of 'down time'. When members of the firm's 18-strong team are not working on projects for clients, their time is made available to charities and community groups. Annually, the firm is able to donate £70,000-worth of work designing logos, publicity materials and goods for sale. The firm also hit on the idea of taking its clients' surplus promotional materials, ranging from plastic cups to mountain bikes, and making them available for charities to auction. Thirty pallet-loads of goods have been stored by the firm and passed on to charities. Director Nick Farrow is also giving business advice to charities, notably helping the Hamlet Centre Trust for disabled children to access £50,000 of extra funding."

The results will be announced at the Gala Dinner Awards Ceremony on the 9th October... Fingers crossed

Sandringham Royal Fruit Farms Apple Juices
Category Business
By Nick On September 25th 2008

We designed the original eight Sandringham Royal Fruit Farms Apple Juice labels about four years ago.  At that time, the farm manager told us of his intention to produce an organic range.

This organic range required a brand new orchard away from any non-organic crops.  Consequently it has taken this amount of time to grow the orchard from scratch and reap a harvest of apples.

The organic apple juices have now been launched with their new livery designed by Farrows.  They are sold at Sandringham and high class retailers across the country.

On Sunday 21st October the Big C put on a catwalk show to showcase a selection of wedding dresses they have had donated to them. Sarah helped out at the show by modelling some of the dresses for the visitors to the event, at the Maids Head hotel in Norwich.

The Big C has had over 300 wedding dresses donated after the appeal and have now opened a wedding floor at their Timberhill shop in the city centre.



On another note, The Big C Sorcerers' Ball raised just under £9000, thanks to Britvic for contributing two mountain bikes for the auction. It was a fun evening and we look forward to next year.
