May Day - May Day. Our new landscape-format poster shows a glimpse of the rich range of local distinctiveness we stand to lose if we do not answer this call for help.

Also still available is the poster's portrait-format predecessor, Common Ground Rules for Local Distinctiveness. Ways of looking at the rich mixture of things that are particular to your place and ideas for stopping the rot. 38 Ground Rules (such as 'Demand the Best of the New' and 'Value the Common Place') are combined with an ABC of the locally particular from Ayrshire Cows to Zennor Church demonstrating how you could create a local ABC. Colour, A2. Read more.
