Pampers & UNICEF Blogger Event

Today IJ, aged 6, is preparing to attend her first ever press conference. No, she hasn't won a prize in some obscure novel writing competition or done anything momentous like becoming the first child to climb Mount Everest without oxygen. Instead, she is accompanying me to a blogger event in London. Her school has conveniently closed for the day (written with some frustration) so she is travelling down on the train to a venue just outside Covent Garden.

It'll be a 5am start and we'll be taking the commuter train and then a couple of crowded tube trains. She may regret her decision to come. Alternatively, she may think I travel to London every day to attend press conferences and then hurry back to collect her from Nottinghamshire, so she may think I am in fact superwoman.

The event we are attending is a blogger lunch, with English actress and mum of three Natascha McElhone, to hear how Pampers and teaming up with UNICEF to fight tetanus in developing countries.

So I've been invited down with a number of other bloggers to hear about the campaign and then to spread the news. I didn't have to be asked twice. It's a very worthwhile cause. The guest list is still a bit of a mystery, I'm not exactly sure which others bloggers will be there. We've been told we can write a pre-launch post this weekend, so take a look around the Internet, there may find similar posts to this one out there.

I'll be reporting back!
