**Tommy’s the Baby Charity is to partner with high street retailer Boots in a one-
year affiliation beginning in April 2004.**

The aim of the partnership is to raise £200,000.

The first fundraising initiative is the sale of character pin badges that will be
available in Boots stores throughout the UK and the Republic of Ireland from 5 April
2004. There are four to collect; Gerry the Giraffe, Tommy the Tortoise, Topsy the
Tiger and Ziggy the Zebra and they will be on sale for a suggested donation of £
1.
