'Chelle' hosts charity event back in her local home town

If I am going to be famous I must do my bit for charity.
Running alongside my FMP is a 'James Bond' charity event I am organising for my local pub and what's more, the comedian Jimmy Jones has agreed to help host. An idea of mine is to use this as one of my methods of getting my name noticed. This will be done through all advertising by announcing the event is 'hosted by Chelle'. This will be seen on all posters, leaflets, newspapers, radio. People will think- Chelle? Who is that... Then they will see my website address and hopefully log on hence more publicity for me. For this event I worked with the manager to organise:
- an Aston Martin, a Rolls Royce and a Z4 to be outside the front
- celebrity guests, 'Jaws' from the actual film James Bond will be there along with 'Odd-Job' who stars in it too.
- photographers
- radio advertising
- local newspaper advertising

We have also organised a Charity Auction, prizes consist of
- P&O Cruise
- dinner for 2 at The Langham, London
- Adnams brewery tour and dinner
- golfing for 18 people
- beauty treatments
- a Z4 for the weekend test drive
- signed football shirts
- signed James Bond posters

Lots more to come!

Hopefully this will also demonstrate in my portfolio my skill for PR work which I am hoping to move into in the future. I have already designed all the graphics for this event and so the pub are willing to help my name become known by radio / media work that will be involved.
I will have photographs from the event to record the outcome. So you just walk into a garage and ask for a BMW for a weekend prize and they say yes! O.K so he knew my boss.
