NOTTINGHAMSHIRE FLAVOURS MAGAZINE
Nottinghamshire Flavours is an independently published 64-page quarterly magazine which celebrates the local Gourmet and Foodie scene in Nottinghamshire. Each issue features interviews with local food producers, specialist retailers, restaurateurs, chefs and other Food-related businesses. There are restaurant reviews, and articles on gourmet travel, wine, and 'grow-your-own' gardening. The magazine is sold through the county's farm shops, garden centres and specialist food outlets. It has a growing list of subscribers, and has been praised for its independent stance, quality editorial and determination to avoid over-reliance on advertising. "We are now looking for sponsorship partners for the magazine and its associated Foodie Events. Sponsorship packages start at £250; but rather than dictating packages and benefits, we would like to work with potential sponsors to design a tailor-made programme which will achieve the sponsor's aims". Contact: Alison Lowe. Address: Adelanta Events, 2 Commercial Road, Nottingham NG6 8HA. Tel.: 0115 975 6907. Fax: 0115 975 6907. E-mail: flavours@adelanta.co.uk.

ONLINE RETAIL AWARDS
The Online Retail Awards are unique and non-partisan, promoted through a top-level domain name, independent of any retailer or media owner, designer or developer. They are global in scope and recognise the huge shift in public attitudes and habits, away from Main Street, the Mall and the High Street, towards online shopping. The clearly stated aim of the Awards is to seek out fine examples of excellent website experiences and effectiveness, great design, best practice and customer service and to reward them publicly, to the benefit of both the cited online retailers and their customers. The Awards comprise twenty-three retail sector category awards, four overall achievement awards and a single top accolade, named the Prix d'Or. Categories are defined by industry sector, so food retailers compete with other food retailers; and airlines' sites with other transport operators' sites. The Online Retail Awards are open to any traditional retailer with an online presence, online-only retailers or their digital agencies, irrespective of size of operation, provided that the website and online activity took place during the previous calendar year. Full details of entry criteria and fees are on the Awards website at www.onlineretailawards.com. Entries for the 2010 Awards will close on February 28th and retailers and agencies were able to upload entries from July 1st, 2009 to the Awards' simple, functional website. There's a useful guide to what is needed to enter on the "How to Enter" page of the website. The Online Retail Awards were actively promoted (visit the Press Release page on the website for an example of the advertising) and further support for the Awards is sought from leading search engines, online payment and fulfilment services, ISPs, supply chain companies and optimization and web marketing organizations for 2010. The Online Retail Awards® are organised by the experienced business celebration team at LEO London, owned by a group of individuals with a combined 210 years' experience of running successful awards events in the US, Europe, Asia and the UK.

PROJECT AYUDA
Project Ayuda is a non-profit international development organisation based in the UK that aspires to pull communities of Internally Displaced People (IDPs) in Colombia out of poverty and hardship by creating a sustainable income for affected communities. Project Ayuda does this by targeting displaced communities who are already producing goods locally but have been unable to find a reliable market to sell them to. Project Ayuda locates and establishes this market in the UK by creating links between the Colombian producers and ethical retailers in the UK who would be interested in selling their products. Working together with numerous partners in Colombia, the organisation provides training, logistical support and financial assistance to the communities with which it works, so that they are able to set up a successful, self-sustainable export business to the UK, thereby escaping the trap of poverty in which they currently live. Project Ayuda is currently seeking sponsorship partners to help it raise the necessary funds to provide these communities with the training and equipment they need, so that they can achieve this long term objective. Contact: Christopher Alford. Address: 12 Lime Kiln Way, Salisbury, Wiltshire SP2 8RN. Tel.: +447708746367. E-mail: projectayuda@gmail.com.

ORT/0001 UNTOLD DESIGN CIC
Untold Design CIC is a not for profit Community Interest Company which provides affordable showcasing opportunities for new and emerging designers to introduce themselves to press, media and buyers within the fashion industry. It also creates opportunities for designers and creatives to subsist themselves in the early stages of their careers at consumer events where they are able to meet with potential customers, build an awareness of their brand and sell to clients. The ethos of Untold is to work as a collective through which a cyclical programme of support and assistance is made available, with the aim of building a long-lasting legacy for new designers and creatives. The organisation relies solely on the hard work and dedication of volunteers and visionaries to take the vision forward; however, there is so much more that they have planned to really broaden their reach and their usefulness to designers and creatives, and they now seek outside sponsorship and support that will enable them to take the organisation to the next level. Currently, Untold produces fashion shows and exhibitions during London Fashion Week, including the Fashion Diversity event produced in partnership with Mahogany Model Management and Museum of London. They have also produced shows at such venues as the Clink Prison Museum, The Foundling Museum and the Kensington Rooms and have an ongoing partnership with the London Design Festival. Untold also works with Clothes Show London and debuts at The Glam Show at Earls Court this October. "All of these opportunities have been created through the organisation since it began in 2007. Over the next year we are seeking to establish a base from which designers can have a retail presence which will also double up as a flexible workspace and training venue for new and aspiring designers. We are seeking to forge long term working relationships with our supporters and sponsors and this can be in varying forms, including services in kind and monetary donations". Contact: Maame Baryeh, Founding Director. Address: 1 Charmouth House, Dorset Road, London SW8 1EU. E-mail: info@un-told.co.uk
