A4.3 Annual Bulletin
By 1997, a decade after forming in 1989, the Working Group of The Friends came to realise that the workload of producing press releases and/or a newsletter on even a quarterly basis and then letterbox distributing it was an unsustainable burden.
Only one press release and one newsletter exist in this archive of The Friends.
On Sunday 16th February 1997, the Working Group (“WG”) met at one of its usual meetings held generally once evey two months. Minutes of that meeting show at Item 4 below the matter concerning campaign publicity options discussed. There were only three attendees.

[Archivist Note to readers: Recall that The Friends and its Working Group were all unpaid volunteers contributing their time and efforts to the cause of caring for The Valley. Both time and efforts over the 27 years were considerable. Evidence in the archive reveals no trace of a bulletin having been produced. Perhaps, in hindsight this very website serves the campaign publicity function, finally.]
