DOWNLOADS AND RESOURCES: GUILD WEEK 2008

Introduction

Planning for the fifth year of this initiative is now underway and with it, encouragement to all members to promote the Guild's work - both locally and nationally - in our own communities from 16 to 23 November 2008.
Guild logo Local groups were invited to plan events or other activities in their areas and communities - a first 'starter' pack was sent out to contact people in local groups in March 2008, and this has been followed up with publicity material and more resources. These materials and other helpful information, tips and downloads are available below

Resources to download
