Patches for the Dirty Vikings...

general
After their success fundraising last year we have again been tasked with producing printed patches for the Dirty Vikings for their end of year awards.

The Dirty Vikings are a team of fundraisers who battle some of the toughest and longest obstacle courses raising money for charity. The vikings fundraise as a collective and say the following 'We run, walk, climb, jump into the dirtiest smelliest water and dress up all to raise money for Cancer Research UK'.


At the end of every year the vikings have conduct an awards ceremony celebrating the achievements of the team. The awards is a chance for the team to reflect on a years worth of raising money and commemorate their success handing out patches to winners for a number of different categories. 

This year their initial design had an intricate design and illustration with a selection of different colours and detail so the team decided the best solution was a printed patch. We were thrilled with how they turned out and so was Molly the Maiden who we liaised with throughout the process.

Lets hope the end of year awards is a success for the Vikings and 2020 is an even bigger year for their fundraising! To find out more about the Dirty Vikings & their fundraising click here.
