After an incredible response to our #StoryGivesBack initiative, we’re thrilled to announce this year’s winners! Following an online vote by previous visitors of the Show, we’re excited to reveal the two new/small businesses that will receive a complimentary stand at the London Christmas Party Show on 3-4 June at the brand-new, soon-to-open Vision Hall:
Half the Story is a social enterprise employing people facing major barriers to work, including homelessness. They offer delicious handmade shortbread cookies which come in three flavours: original, choc chip and lemon. All biscuits come with an innovative card insert explaining how the biscuits are rewriting somebody’s story from homelessness to hope. Every employee in their bakery earns a real Living Wage and has access to mentoring and holistic support.
Half The Story’s Head of Communications commented: “Thanks to Story Events and everyone who voted. We can’t wait to share our life-changing biscuits with everybody at the London Christmas Party Show. Feeling festive already!”
StreetHunt Games offer immersive, self-guided outdoor mystery games set in captivating locations in London & York. Think a grown-up scavenger hunt meets escape room meets murder mystery! Their vision is to create immersive games throughout the UK and internationally, focusing on the interaction between technology and the environment.
Annaliza, StreetHunt Games’ co-founder said, “This is an incredible opportunity for us to showcase our games to event organisers and establish ourselves as a top choice for Christmas party activities. As a growing business, we don’t yet have the budget for a stand or the experience to know if it’s the right investment, so this could be a real game-changer for us. A huge thank you to Story for giving us this opportunity, and to everyone who voted for us!”
A HUGE congratulations to this year’s winners!
We would also like to say a huge well done to everyone who took part in this year’s #StoryGivesBack initiative! We had some fantastic event suppliers apply, who we would also love to mention:
