WANTED – MEN WITH BEARDS AVAILABLE ON THE 2nd OF JULY 2016!
We are excited to announce that DP Marketing Communications are spreading a bit of sparkly joy at Northampton Town Festival and will be getting the beard oil and glitter out, whilst organising a Glitter-Beard-Athon Fundraistravaganza to raise money for Alzheimer’s Research UK.
There is currently an application to set a world record for the most amount of glittery beards created in 1 hour pending for the event on the 2nd of July. If you have a beard or know anyone that does please get involved and share this link with them. They could appear in the Guinness Book of World Records! There will also be a photoshoot on the day and coverage from the media. Glitter and decoration will be provided and it’s all for a good cause so get involved people!
If you would like to help us by getting glitter-fied just let us know via our email addresshello@dpmarketingcommunications.com. You will then be sent a fundraising form and all of the things that you need to help you in your fundraising quest!
