A local marketing agency has shown their support to a Worcestershire charity by celebrating their first year in business. 

Worcester based NinetyFive Creative held a coffee morning on Friday 29 October to mark their first birthday. Existing clients and neighbouring businesses were invited to join the celebrations in exchange for a donation to Maggs Day Centre in Worcester. 

As well as raising money, the event supported the Maggs Clothing Project with a number of guests donating old items of clothing, small household items and sleeping bags.  

NinetyFive Creative's Managing Director Matt Lloyd said: "Having seen the work that Maggs do, we're really pleased that we chose to work with them. We had a great turn out to the coffee morning and consequently the support shown for Maggs, and the clothing project in particular, was fantastic."

Maggs provide support to anyone who is homeless, isolated, or lonely across Worcestershire. As well as the clothing project, they also run a free-access day centre in Worcester, an outreach and a support service, and a night centre during the coldest weeks of the year.   

Mel Kirk, Temporary Manager at Maggs Day Centre, added: "Our thanks go out to NinetyFive Creative for choosing to support us. They've done a fantastic job in raising awareness of the different ways in which people can show their support. Their clothing donation alone will make a real difference to those in need."

NinetyFive Creative was formed just over 12 months ago by directors Matt Lloyd and Ben Barnes, who met while studying at Worcester College of Technology's School of Art and Design back in 1995. The dynamic duo now employ a team of people and provide a full range of design and marketing services, including web design, design for print, campaign management and brand development.
