Graeme Bettles and Robert Selmer-Olsen of The Jupiter Drawing Room have won the South African leg of the Young Lions competition for their work on the Jonga Trust, an organisation that screens and manages eye health for disadvantaged communities. The pair will jet off to France to compete on the international arena at the 2010 Cannes Lions later this year. Tom Cullinan, executive creative director of The Jupiter Drawing Room (Jhb) says, "It is the second year in a row that Jupiter (Jhb) has won this much sought after accolade. We hope Captain Bettles and Rob do our country proud when they officially represent South Africa in Cannes."
