This is the time when One World Week 2014 links you and your global justice activities with others across the UK and beyond!WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR “Living Differently” DURING ONE WORLD WEEK?
PUBLICITY Use our Living Differently Logos on your publicity. Just download them from our website. Or simply add your details to the space on the “Living Differently” Leaflet, also on our website. Use our “Living differently” press release template to let your local press and media know what you’re planning – and tell them how it went afterwards. Don’t forget to take photos. Need our printed leaflets? Use the attached Resource Order/Single Donation Form to order your additional leaflets. All we ask is for a contribution towards printing and postage cost of £2 for 10 or £4 for 30 leaflets. This could also be your chance to add a much-needed donation to your cheque. There is no charge for bulk mailing over 300 leaflets. Get your hard copies of the acclaimed OWW handbook and OWW interfaith booklet for just £2 each towards postage. They contain many useful hints. You can also see the Handbook on our website. RESOURCES Do you need a little help with your OWW Church Service? Then take a look at these Faith Resources. How about help with your Youth Group Games to encourage team work. Other resources are here. Coming Soon – Keep an eye on our Resources pages for quotations and pledges for “Living Differently”. Or send in any that you might like to be considered for sharing. FEEDBACK To provide you with useful resources and generate funding we need your feedback. So no matter how large or small your event we would appreciate you completing our evaluation form. OWW 2014 Evaluation Form. Are you proud of your OWW Event and have photos you are happy to share? Fabulous, then e-mail them to us and we will share some in our Newsletter or on our website. THREAT OF CLOSURE One World Week is facing the possibility of imminent closure after 36 years, due to lack of funding, despite the many individual contributions for which we continue to be very grateful. We are currently calling on key partners for support to take us to OWW 2015 and await their response. OWW is unique in bringing people together who care about global justice, identifying commonalities that transcend monocultures of race, faith or issue. Through its annual themes, OWW has been a conduit for people to become more aware of the background to issues such as the environment, fair trade or climate change as they have become household words. Joint events encourage people to confront fundamental causes of poverty on safe, neutral ground. Like never before, we need your donations to continue providing you with resources to carry on raising awareness about global justice. WE LOOK FORWARD to a fruitful One World Week 2014 of challenging ‘people to work together to build a just, peaceful and sustainable world’. With best wishes from Mina, Ingrid, Jonaid, Sally, Sarah and Sebastian Patron: The Revd the Lord Griffiths of Pembrey and Burry Port We are grateful to all who work with us, helping via grants, resources, publicity or advice: |
