He said: “zavvi.com is an online entertainment site dedicated to delivering great products to young people and is always looking to support dynamic and forward thinking partners and Trekstock certainly fits into that criteria.
Over the coming months we will be pulling out all the stops to help raise awareness of the charity amongst our existing customers and using the power of our brand to reach out to fans in the film, music and gaming sectors on Trekstock’s behalf.
The work carried out by Trekstock is of enormous importance and every penny we can raise will make a difference to the lives of young people affected by cancer.” Trekstock, the British charity supporting teenagers with cancer by raising money through music and fashion, is delighted to be holding an official launch party on 17th March 2010 to celebrate becoming a registered charity.
The evening will officially begin in London’s No 11 Downing Street with some very special guests and live performances from Goldheart Assembly and Rox and will then move onto an exclusive location in Soho, where guests will be invited into both an indoor music festival and fashion party from some very famous names! The launch involves some very
special guests and as well as celebrating Trekstock’s official charity status, will include:
- an announcement of a high profile patron from the music world;
- celebration of the launch of own-fashion brand ‘Trekstock Loves’, which goes
on sale in Browns Focus in early March, and;
- unveiling of an exciting new partnership with a major UK charity.
