The Pyramid of Shoes Event
LMB has sponsored all three Handicap International UK's 'Pyramid of Shoes event'. The 2003 'Stamp out
Landmines' and 2004 'Ban Cluster Bombs' events were held at Trafalgar Square, London. On the 11th of November
2005 Covent Garden hosted the most recent pyramid, which urged the public to show solidarity with victims of
cluster bombs and support the campaign to Ban Cluster Bombs. Beatrice Cami, Fundraising & Communication Manager
for Handicap international explained, "For the past three years, LMB through the Shoe Friends project has been
the main sponsor of our Pyramid of Shoes. This event is key to our campaign and without the help of LMB we
wouldn't have been able to do it. LMB provides us each year with 3 tonnes of shoes to build up the Pyramid.
Their team also assist on site all day to help us out and Michelle Barry organises the children educational
recycling workshops. The kids adore the activities and it gave Handicap UK officials time to talk to the parents
about the petition we were promoting. On behalf of the Handicap International team, I would like to say only one
thing: Thank you!"
