Win OLPRO Pop Tent and Sleeping Bag

September 19, 2016 by Katie Bryson

OLPRO Pop Tent - win on feedingboys.co.uk
Are you planning on popping off on a camping trip next season? Are you booking yourself in for some festival fun? Well if it’s a yes then I’ve got a fab prize coming your way. I’ve joined forces with camping experts OLPRO to give away a nifty little pop-up tent and super cosy sleeping bag.

Hush Sleeping Bag from OLPRO - win on feedingboys.co.ukThey sent them both to me to check out for myself, and we were hugely impressed. The tent is stowed in a cute little rucksack, perfect for slinging on your back as it’s light as a feather. It pops up in no-time and is just right for two people. We thought it’d also be great as an add-on to our own camping set-up as an extra room for storing all our kitchen gear. Kind of like a pop-up pantry!!!!

 

The sleeping bag is roomy and very soft with an attractive design. None of that nail-catching shiny day-glo fabric nonsense. Fancy winning the tent and sleeping bag for yourself? Well read on…

Beautiful little book the audience were all given Beautiful little book the audience were all given at last night’s performance of #Here from @curious.monkey_ at @northern_stage. Such a powerful performance from the talented cast bringing together individual stories of what it means to seek sanctuary in the North East, the friendships that are forged and the spark of hope that refuses to be snuffed out. With the plight of refugees so visible right now,  the timing of this performance was impeccable. #RefugeesWelcome #togetherwithrefugees🧡 #StoryCollectors
