Total Networking member makes 'inspired' donation to Marie Curie

July 2008:
Total Networking member, Inspired by Print has very kindly donated two Xerox Phaser 3500 printers, one to Marie Curie Cancer Care and one to Total Networking. Wil Chung comments that the printer will save time and money for Total Networking, both being very important when running a self funded group such as Total Networking.

Inspired by Print have a number of Xerox Phaser 3500 black & white printers (worth around £400) to give away to Total Networking members. Members must spend at least £250 with Inspired by Print in one project to be eligible. This could be, for example, the print and design of new letter heads and business cards. Printers are on a first come, first served basis and are of limited number. For more details, please contact Mike Waterfall on 01636 702597.
