Bringing some Style to the School Lunchbox!

KM LOGO NEW 1024x387 Bringing some Style to the School Lunchbox!
I’m always being asked to work with non-fashion brands and most cases, I decline, unless they meet two criteria – they’re a local NI brand and one that is a genuine part of my life outside of clothes and beauty. Well, Kingsmill meets those criteria – locally made here in Belfast (news to me too!) and a critical part of my day to day. Love it or hate it (I hate it) – the school lunch box can get very monotonous after a few weeks back at school.

So during October, I’m teaming up with Kingsmill, Northern Ireland’s top selling bread, to launch an exciting new product that is sure to give lunchtime a new lease of life. Ahead of the launch, I need some help from local readers of School Gate Style…and in return, you could win a year’s supply of Kingsmill bread!

What do you have to do? Simply answer some questions on this anonymous survey….it will only take a few minutes and no personal details like names or email addresses are needed –  you need only say which county of Northern Ireland you live in.

But if there’s no personal details involved, then how do I win the bread I hear you ask? Well, to be in with a chance of winning one of 5 prizes – yes FIVE – simply leave a comment below this blog post (or below the Facebook post if you are unable to comment here) giving me your name and confirming you’ve completed the survey. It’s as simple as that!

The survey runs for one week until Tuesday 23rd September and soon after, I’ll be announcing the bread-winners…see what I did there?

Thanks in advance for your help and for supporting the brands that support this blog icon smile Bringing some Style to the School Lunchbox!

Ax

Open to residents of Northern Ireland only
Closing date – Tuesday 23rd September
Prize is a book of vouchers redeemable for Kingsmill products – based on an average family’s annual consumption.
Winners will be chosen at random using Random.Org and will be contacted to provide a postal address.

    Survey done!

    There seemed to be a mistake in survey it when I looked at it – it asks which county you are from ( assuming it means where you live! – as I live in a different county from where I am originally from :)) – but County Armagh is listed twice – and County Fermanagh is not listed

    My oldest boy is starting primary school on Monday..(so late, right?) and I am not only panicking about him fending for himself at lunch time but what to put in his fancy new lunch bag??? He is a boy with a healthy appetite but gets bored very easily. Any guidance on avoiding lunches returning home along with rumbling tummies would be greatly appreciated.
