I was wondering if you have ever done leaflets drops to doctors surgeries and such like about the site?
Since i have found you i have told my doctor, reflexologist, CBT man and Psychiatrist about the site and how good it is, none of them have heard of it, and all wrote it down to use as a resource in future for other clients.
I just thought if you could get doctors surgeries to put your site address up on a notice board you might reach more people who really need you.
Maybe you've already tried this or its not cost effective, but i would be happy to ask my surgery to put a leaflet up and im sure lots of other people would around the country, we could all help! :yesyes: Maybe if we each printed one off u emailed us it wouldnt cost anything either?
I know that if i was sitting in a surgery waiting to speak to a doctor about my pa's and i saw about yourselves in the waiting room i would defo jot it down!!!
Anyway, just a thought

Have to say that I agree with you all. I did mention this site to my doctor, and she had heard of it!!

I would be more than willing to print of and drop some leaflets at local surgies.

Hi all,

I believe there was one done around July, 2007 for a conference. Nic would know if there are any available. Thanks for asking, great idea!

We do have a flyer (A4 folded in 3) that we used at the conference Laura mentioned.

I can always print some more off so please PM me your name and address and I will get some posted to you.

Thanks all

Nic, would it be easier if we sent you our email address' for you to send them to us on and we printed them off at home, this might be faster and less expensive for NMP? Its your call though? C xxx

I could circulate in my area no problem,
How about posting a link to a word doc. template then we could all grab some from there ?

I will post some tomorrow for those that sent their addresses.

What I have are:

An A4 poster advertising the website
An A4 poster advertising the forum
Postcards advertising the site
A double-sided A4 sheet that folds into 3 advertising the whole of NMP.

I have run out of the folded leaflets but can print some more.

I think the A4 leaflets are done in Microsoft Word (will check and let you know) but the A4 folded ones are done in Adobe In-Design so Alex may be able to export that to Adobe Acrobat. As they are double-sided you will need to work out how to print them off and they are in colour so will use your ink up.

I will try and get some more printed this week if anyone would like some more.

Thanks for all the stuff Nic, just thought id let you know i went to my appointment today with psychiatrist and gave the team office all the stuff you sent me, they were really impressed and promised to put it up on noticeboard and distribute to clients they thought it would help. They thanked me and said to tell you what a great site it looked and what a wonderful job you were doing!!!! :yahoo: :yesyes:

thanks nic

Can those who received the leaflets let me know what they thought of the postcards that I sent as well as I can order some more of them for free at the moment.

Did you like them or prefer the leaflets that Alex and I did?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Nic.
I thought all the stuff was really impressive and very professional, the leaflets offered alot more information but the postcards are good as a 'pick up and take and then find out more' method for people. Id say if there free get them anyway, the more we can leave lying round in the right places the more people we can reach, i know my mental health team would probably appreciate any more they can hand out to the appropriate people!
Nic, if i was you and theres freebies going, grab um!!!!!! :yesyes:
Any more help with distribuation i can give just let me know. :)

hi nic,

i agree with charlie

the a4 leaflets are good for putting on a notice board,

the folded a4 fit nicely into the leaflet information racks

and the postcards for the table to take away readily.

if you want any more distributing to other surgeries etc

please feel free to send me more
