You can also download the entire campaign pack from here.
Don’t worry if you can’t do everything the pack suggests – every piece of action, however small, takes us a step nearer to getting the marbles returned to their rightful home.
I very much hope that you and your society will want to take part in this campaign, and that you too appreciate the importance of Britain being consistent and honourable in its approach to cultural heritage.
Please let me know how the campaign goes in your area, and don’t hesitate to make contact if you need any more help, advice or information – just email [email protected].
