Why we took the initiative

Jeremy Houghton, Artist

When I was small I loved my pencil case. It opened up my mind’s eye. Today pens and pencils still play a crucial part in the lives of me and my friends. We’ve got jobs of all descriptions, which were started thanks to the creative ideas and doodles from our first felt tips.

Recently it dawned upon me that not all kids are lucky enough to have a pencil case. I hope I have found a way of helping this problem and nourishing a bit of untapped potential.
