We have been asked by the team at a leading UK manufacturer and supplier of kitchen housewares, cookware and electrical items to find 12-15 MN bloggers to join an exclusive New Product Innovation Panel (client is top secret at the moment! 
)
This would involve
a) attending a briefing at their HQ in the West of London area on Thursday 18th April between 11am and 2pm and
b) trying out new kitchen electrical products and reviewing them on your blog
The company are wanting to showcase a range of new products - including Cookware, Electrical Cooking and Linen Care.
They are looking for bloggers (who are in the UK and who have at least one child) who write about matters including cookery but also who are happy to blog about ironing and other domestic matters!
They are specifically looking for bloggers who have a wide reach with their blog and who are willing to tweet and facebook their blog posts.
At the event bloggers will be given an intro to the product range and a preview of what's coming up. At this event, you will get a welcome pack and one or more devices to take away - and to blog about. These blog posts will feature on the MN widget which sits on more than 200 blogs across our network. To be on the panel you will need to have the MN widget on your blog and to follow our blog guidelines - you will be sent details. All attendees will also have reasonable travel costs paid (up to £80 per person) and receive a £30 John Lewis voucher as a thank you for attending.
After this first event and review the bloggers will be members of the Innovation Panel and this panel will be run by the company team - so your details will be passed on to them who will be in touch regarding further product reviews and events over the next few months. They are keen to "build a long term relationship with the bloggers on the Innovation Panel - we will share new and existing products and innovations, and would specifically ask them to preview any new products and/or (if they are interested) the existing range. We'll also give them exclusive invites to press events, demonstrations etc"
If you'd like to apply to take part please add your details here - cut off Midnight March 7th
All those selected will be emailed details
Please note if you are selected and join the Innovation Panel your details will be passed on to the team at the company, though you will be able to leave the panel at any time.
Please do not blog about this opportunity for now!
Any questions please ask. MNHQ
(PS this has also been sent out to members of the MN bloggers panel)
