Our WOW song
We always wanted to make a WOW song – and with so many of the Footprint Friends team being musicians we had ample talent! We were lucky enough to have Ian Tompson produce the song in Jools Holland’s studio complex - Greenwich, London. Massive thank you to both Jools and Ian for their support.
Our song is available to download from iTunes. Our vision is that this song raises the roof tops in schools everywhere – it was written for schools as a new anthem on the road to a more sustainable future to ‘WIPE OUT WASTE TODAY!’ We hope you like it and we would love to see some films on youtube of it being sung in your school. It was amazing to hear it performed at the WOW final in the Gardens of His Royal Highness - The Prince of Wales – who knows
maybe together we can change the world with a song.
We’re thinking of lots more creative ways of getting your message out to everyone. Anything you can suggest, please get in touch or join our forums and there is a good chance we will take your idea and run with it!
All Footprint Friends activities are free (our volunteers are amazing), although Footprint Friends has a charitable foundation and we are always so appreciative of donations from our supporters. If you like our song please look out for it on iTunes and by purchasing you will be helping the Footprint Friends Foundation. Alternatively if music is not your thing but you and would like to enable us to do more of this work please support us by making a small donation.
