Happy birthday Trunki!!

Today we're celebrating our 8th birthday! I know... 8 whole years, we can hardly believe it's been so long. That means Terrance and Trixie have clocked up 96 months of "wheelie" hard work and countless traveling miles, entertaining tots all over the world. We're not usually ones to blow our own trumpet, but our little team has achieved quite a lot in that time. We've sold over 2 million cases, won over 100 awards and now our Trunki products are stocked in 97 countries across the world. Here's just a few recent snap shots from our Trunki family album...

Schools and community groups across the country will be running their own activities today and over the bank holiday weekend, but there are tones of different ways that you can get your family involved.

Trunki finds perfect storage solution for Bristol & Flamingo Chicks

Trunki has donated 15 Trunki suitcases to Bristol’s first inclusive dance group, the Flamingo Chicks. The group offers weekly classes to children with disabilities, giving them the opportunity to explore movement and have fun with their friends. Children may have Down’s syndrome, cerebral palsy, autism, be undergoing treatment for cancer or be wheelchair users and are aged between 5-8yrs. We started off by sponsoring one of the Flamingo Chicks dance classes, but after hearing that some of the children struggle to carry heavy bags, we thought the pull along Trunki was the ideal, fun solution for transporting dance kits!
