Wingfinger partner Richard, along with his daughter Becky and friends completed the 24.5 mile Yorkshire Three Peaks Walk on 17 March 2012.
Becky is fundraising for her trip to Bangladesh in April, as part of a Voluntary Services Overseas (VSO) Global Exchange group. Global Exchange is a Global Volunteering Experience which supports young people from all backgrounds to make a real difference to some of the world’s poorest people. VSO is an International Development Charity that works through and with Volunteers.
Whilst in Bangladesh Becky will live in a community in a host person’s home, learn first-hand about the culture and share skills, creativity and learning. In Bangladesh she will contribute to VSO Bangladesh’s Model Village concept – where poor and excluded people benefit from economic growth and social development. In the model village, community groups (Youth Clubs and Citizen Committees) are mobilised to work for the village development on issues affecting their communities. The aim of VSO Bangladesh is then to share best practice outcomes from these villages with many more in the same geographical area to maximise impact.
You can donate on her Just giving page (the money will go directly to VSO): www.justgiving.com/becky-lether.

Phew! Just finished this information pack for CENEX – the UK’s national centre of excellence for low carbon and fuel cell technologies. It was a race against the clock to ensure that printed copies were available on time for conference delegates. It was close, but we made it.
After the event Chris Walsh, Head of Technical Support and Consultancy, commented:
‘Wingfinger did some great work producing our Fleet carbon reduction information packs, helping us pull the whole job together against a very tight deadline.’

We’ve just completed work on this website for the Venkatraman Memorial Trust – a small charity supporting the education of children in the fishing village of Kovalam near Chennai in the south of India. It looks like we did OK, if client Lindsay Swan’s comments are anything to go by:
‘We are delighted with our new website. We wanted a design that captured the vibrant colours and spirit of Kovalam and provided an attractive background for our growing photo library. The new site does this beautifully and it is also completely painless to maintain.
Thank you Wingfinger for a fantastic job.’
This site is a good example of our new CMS Web Package Deal – a basic content-managed website with prices starting from just £518 +VAT (including our current 10% introductory discount). If you’d like us to put one together for you, give us a call on 0113 2450469.

We continue to do a lot of design for charity and non-profit organisations, and a new addition to our portfolio of reports and policy papers is the Jubilee Debt Campaign’s annual review. We’ve incorporated a couple of details from this report into the Literature section of our gallery. Another recent addition to the site is a new case study on our approach to designing this sort of document. We’ve looked at some of the issues relating to this sort of design project, and the approaches we have developed at Wingfinger to turn a text-heavy or jargon-filled paper into a sharp, readable piece of literature.
And if your’re interested in our charity and non-profit design services: just a reminder that we still have our special offer of 10% off a first job for new clients running over the summer.
