I hope the first few days of February have been lucky for you. I’ve not won any prizes for the month yet but it is early days and I’m remaining positive! As promised from January I’ve found some dates for our February Comper’s Calendar, themed days that promoters could be running comps alongside. The best place to search for these will be social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter. Stick a hashtag before the named day in the search bar – and away you go!
