With a year to go until Team GB march out on home soil to compete at the 2012 Olympic Games, the nation is gripped by London 2012 fever.  To celebrate, John Lewis Southampton is proud to be welcoming the new special edition Wenlock, the official London 2012 Olympic Games mascot in Union Flag print. 

Wearing the nation’s colours with pride, Wenlock looks especially patriotic in the Union Flag and offers a chance to show your support for your nation and own a piece of history.

Union Flag products have long been a best seller at John Lewis and with the Queen’s Jubilee and London 2012 on the horizon the demand is set to grow further.

Sara Browning, from the gifts department at John Lewis Southampton says: “We are currently seeing a strong trend for British style products and Wenlock in Union Flag print is the perfect addition to our range.  He sums up the patriotism that is sweeping the country in the lead up to London 2012 perfectly.”

The special edition Wenlock Union Flag mascot will be available at John Lewis Southampton and online at johnlewis.com from 27th July 2011, to celebrate one year to go to the Opening Ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic Games.
