World Animal Day 2021

Every year on the 4th of October, the world comes together to raise awareness in order to improve the welfare standards of all animals.

We had a blast with our World Animal Day Flag!


We wanted to get involved as a team of animal lovers, so we decided to run an animal selfie competition to help raise awareness for the cause. (We also thought it would be a great way to get plenty of cute animal pics!)

We teamed up with easyDogwalker, and PetShop.co.uk. As keen animal loving businesses, they both were keen to get involved! The PetShop.co.uk kindly offered to donate a £75 voucher for the winner to be used on their online store. Then the members of easyGroup easyDogwalker and ourselves, agreed to team up and donate to the official sponsor of World Animal Day, the Naturewatch Foundation.

We even got a helping paw from my dog Leo who became the model for the campaign and enjoyed his day meeting the team as well as getting to explore a whole easyStorage van!

World Animal Day even got in contact to request a picture of Leo modelling a special bandana and the flag too.

We thought, rather than keeping all of these adorable pictures to ourselves, we thought we would share our top submission of some lovely furry friends and at the end you can even meet the winner in a special video!

Sir Stelios got involved with the picture paw-fect Jackie!

This had to be one of our most interesting submissions

People really do go nuts for easyStorage

Traditional Storage Vs. easyStorage: Which One is Better

As Hassan Fathy once said, tradition is the social equivalent of personal habits. Habit, comfort zone, belief – these are just some of the words we can associate with the word "tradition." It is something that has been part of our lives that is so difficult to get rid of. Being open to innovation is hard for people who do not welcome the idea of getting out of their comfort zone. The hassle and inconvenience of learning new things are some of the reasons why people do not accept change. However, change is the only permanent thing in the world. We do not have a choice but to keep up with it. Else, we will be left behind.
