Wink 'Snails as pets' campaign

i would like to start a campaign to make snails a more popular household pet. when people think of household pets they think of dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, fish ect. they dont think of snails and yet when you mention that you own pet snails people give you wierd looks and think you are off your trolley cos you have these beautiful creatures as pets. well i want to change all that, i want to make snails a popular pet. also by doing this more research and tests should be done on them about the illnesses that they get. so please help with my campaign. i am look for people to advertise snails and how much of an easy, fun pet these are for young and old. i will be writing up leaflets and care sheets.
i am looking for volenteers to help promote this campaign, i will write up infomation packs for all volenteers.
all infomation packs will enclude, ideas of how to advertise the campaign, how to get people envolved, care sheet and a leaflet (please print out as many copies of the leaflet and care sheet as you need).
please e-mail me if you would like to be a volenteer and i will get a infomation pack sent to you ASAP
my e-mail is rosannalear@ymail.com
thank you rosanna
