Last year we told you about our friend Jessica (8 years old), and her friend, Trixie Trunki, who helps her get out and about by carrying her oxygen tank. You can read the post by clicking here. We were thrilled to find out that Jessica recently completed a 1-mile walk to raise money for the 100,000 Smiles Appeal at her school. This is a huge accomplishment for Jessica, who has Cerebral Palsy and chronic lung disease, meaning she is dependent on an oxygen supply 24/7. Last year the charity Cerebra modified a Trunki so that it could carry Jessica’s oxygen cylinder. This...

Last week we found out that we'd won our case against PMS who produced a copy of our protected Trunki design. The High Court ruled that the 'Kiddee Case' breached our design rights.
