Record Breaking Campaign!
Ian raised over £10,000 for this great cause, and to help him achieve this we secured some impressive media coverage. The campaign started off in March with an interview on BBC Radio Leeds’ flagship Breakfast Show, but nearer the event gained momentum with features in the Yorkshire Post and Yorkshire Evening Post, until eventually the day of the event arrived – and the media went crazy to feature Ian singing his heart out.
The event itself was a true labour of love, with blood, sweat and almost tears, coming into it. A true achievement Ian is not relenting, in trying to entice further sponsors to help raise his target for Childline fundraising.
Immediately leading up to the day Ian was featured in:
Yorkshire Post Business Tuesday Supplement - ‘My Passion' feature
Yorkshire Evening Post Sponsorship announcement piece
Leeds Guide as a Recommended Listing
Leicester Mercury as a story of a local lad
BBC Radio Leeds in a karaoke discussion
Real Radio in the man behind the mission
Radio Aire re karaoke in Leeds.
