    Hi Vicky,

    I am a teacher at a school in Cumbria and we are holding a fairtrade fashion show in May. I have just seen your fashion show poster on the net and I think it’s absolutuely brilliant. Would there be any possibility of using some / all of your artwork on our fairtrade fashion show publicity poster?

    Best wishes,

    Genna Campbell
