Good news from Sightsavers

I've had a nice email from Sightsavers, with whom I've been working on some major donor fundraising materials for the Bangladesh Childhood Cataract Campaign.

Their latest appeal pack recently hit expensive doormats up and down the land, and the results are very satisfying. Sophie from Sightsavers writes:

"We've done a quick tally and to date the latest BCCC appeal has raised £-------, which is the top end of the 'target scale.'

A big thank you and massive well done, we're delighted!"

The BCCC is a wonderful programme that's bringing sight to thousands of children, often in remote areas of Bangladesh; children who would otherwise almost certainly be blind for life. So it's very nice to know that we've helped secure some more funding for it.

I worked on the materials with freelance designer Piers Rutterford, and fundraising consultancy the IFC.

Hello, johnson banks

A very welcome addition to the client list this month, in the form of celebrated design consultancy johnson banks, creators of brilliant branding and graphics and home to one of the most engaging design blogs around.


Johnson Banks' recent splendid stamps celebrating 50 years since Lennon met McCartney.

I'd love to be able to add to this news with details of the branding project Michael Johnson and I have been collaborating on, but it's super-confidential. Suffice it to say that it's really rather big.
