Publication has been suspended on Pregnancy, Baby and You magazine. In some ways this is unsurprising. Magicalia has acquired a number of parenting magazines in the last year and inevitably would pick out the weaker ones. However Pregnancy, Baby and You had developed enormously under the editorships of Claire Roberts and then Emma Hartfield. Let’s hope suspended does only mean suspended and it will be back soon.
Here are a few promotional opportunities from the NCT.
User Representatives Forum- Sponsorship and Exhibition Opportunities
This one-day forum is expected to bring together 120 user representatives on committees
and structures influencing maternity, family and child health and support services throughout the UK.
As well as informing user reps the forum will be a great opportunity for reps to come together to discuss topical issues and share new ideas and experiences of projects and activities in which they are involved. Reps are well informed and highly motivated to meet exhibitors both to exchange ideas and recommendations and to discuss and buy products and services.
The cost for an exhibition stand at this event is £150 plus VAT and includes:
• A six foot table and two chairs
• Two delegate passes, including refreshments and lunch
• The inclusion of 50 word company profile in the delegate pack
Inserts may be placed in the delegate pack at a cost of £75 plus VAT.
Headline and other sponsorship opportunities are available to suit, please email commercial@nct.org.uk for more information.
