The partnership will involve staff of MINI dealerships, employees at the MINI factory in Oxford and staff at MINI HQ. The partnership started on 29 September when Whizz-Kidz took part in MINI’s Family Fun Day at Plant Oxford. Around 4,500 MINI employees and their families attended and all funds raised will go to Whizz-Kidz. Future plans for the partnership include a Whizz-Kidz Kidz Board meeting to be held at the Oxford plant and extensive staff fundraising activity. MINI will also be supporting the Whizz-Kidz runners at next year’s London Marathon and participating in a MINI Adventure challenge overseas. ## Advertisement [⌊Posthub advert.

There is a very strong synergy between both brands. A MINI can be customised to suit an individual’s specific requirements and Whizz- Kidz provides mobility equipment customised to meet a disabled child or young person’s individual needs. Ultimately, the essence of both Whizz-Kidz and MINI is about having fun and living life to the full.” * **[New appointment at The Giving Campaign](https://fundraising.co.uk/2002/10/03/new-appointment-giving-campaign/)**( 3 October 2002) * **[New account manager at AMA Charity Services](https://fundraising.co.uk/2002/10/03/new-account-manager-ama-charity-services/)**( 3 October 2002) * **[Raising funds from mobile phones](https://fundraising.co.uk/2002/10/07/raising-funds-mobile-phones/)**( 7 October 2002)
