			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.debra.org.uk/what-is-eb.html">Have you heard of the charity DebRA?</a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.debra.org.uk/what-is-eb.html">DebRA is a charity devoted to finding a cure for a terrible skin afflication called Epidermolysis Bullosa</a>.  <a href="http://www.debra.org.uk/faqs.html">More about the condition</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1V0PW_61xKs&amp;feature=PlayList&amp;p=06D1C95615BBB757&amp;index=1">Have a look at this film about sufferer Jonny Kennedy &#8211; a real inspiration</a>.</p>
<p>This is a very rare inherited condition that results in blisters, internally and externally, at the slightest knock.  Many sufferer develop skin cancer early.  The pain and restrictions on normal living are tremendous: changing dressing can take many painful hours.</p>
<p>I am giving some of my time to helping promote a dinner that deBRA is having in a month&#8217;s time.</p>
<p>The dinner has Michale Portillo speaking.  The event is now half full, but the organisers want to be sure of filling the remaining seats.  (I believe it is £450 per table of 10). The charity has some notable household names in addition to Michael.</p>
<p>The brief</p>
<p>The event should fill, but Tony one of the organisers is extra keen to put this to rest.  If the night is a success it will act as a platform for more &#8211; it will give the charity a real impetus.  So he is looking for ideas.</p>
<p>But more than that, the work of DebRA is not well-known.  The brief is flexible if it can get DebRA a higher profile.</p>
<p>All creative ideas welcome &#8211; something more than a charity run or jumping out of a plane &#8211; let your imagination run wild.</p>
<p>And you don&#8217;t have to be a PR to help &#8211; I also want to show how online interaction can work</p>
<p>Please leave ideas in the comment box!!!!</p>
