It’s not always easy to keep smiling when you’re trying to put together something as ambitious as this – but thankfully our team keeps everything on the fun side!

Here are Susan Murphy (left) and Cheryl Gain – currently editing the official 12for12k promo video – showing off one of the new designs for the promotional banners and blog badges. Details of the badges – and how you could be involved in the video – will appear soon.

As you’ve probably noticed, the site has been moved to a new server. This will allow us to have a far greater level of interaction with both yourself and the charities in question.

The site is active, but will be going through some design tweaks and adjustments over the next few days. Therefore, comments may not show up immediately – this should be resolved shortly.

Blog badges and other promotional materials should also be available later this week for you to help promote the challenge, and you can still add your name to the 12for12K Facebook group in the meantime.

Again, thanks for your support so far and here’s to the imminent launch of the 12for12K Challenge.
