Last Xmas the ten most dedicated volunteers were rewarded for their commitment with the first ever Shaidy Character Hoodies. Both eye catching and highly practical for a (Northern) British summer, the hoodies have quickly become the must have fashion item of 2008. In fact they have been our best promotional idea to date, so we've decided to make it an annual prize. There will be a new colour every year, so SUPER dedicated Shaidy Charcters can collect them (until they start to look like a tellytubby!)

But don't despair if you're not one of the lucky ten. Hoodies will also be available to buy at cost price for special friends, honorary and wannabe Shaidies.
