(Sweat) Band-Aid

The Flora London Marathon Expo starts today, and most of JG Towers (including some of the techies and finance people) will be going down at some point over the next four days to give advice and answer any questions.

It's a great opportunity for us to meet with some of the most passionate users of our website and to get some face-to-face feedback from them.

To do that, we've taken over a few laptops so people can check their fundraising pages, and we'll be surveying as many FLM fundraisers as we can to try and find out how we can improve the website and help them raise more funds.

As there are currently 14,329 Flora London Marathon fundraising pages on Justgiving, collecting donations for a staggering 1,131 different charities, we won't be able to talk to them all, but we can try!

Plus, anyone who takes our survey will get a free Justgiving Sweatband as shown below (Boots Cod Liver Oil not included)

The data we get back from our surveys will then be used by our Product Team to help them decide what new features we should develop. All this is part of our goal to help your fundraisers raise more money for you.

So, if you or your fundraisers are at the Expo and fancy a chat, we'll be on stand 316 (look out for the fancy T-Shirts).

But don't worry if you can't come, Simon will be live blogging every day with stories from fundraisers, so keep an eye on our fundraiser blog for all the news.

Jonathan... impressive figures.

In due course, I'd like to report on how well the badges and widget were used for the marathon this year.

Good luck to all!!
