Financial Times Advertising Campaign.

The Sheriffs' and Recorder's Fund was thrilled when the prestigious Financial Times newspaper offered us FREE ADS during our Bicentenary Year! The advertising copy was also DONATED by the international advertising agency, Euro RSCG. We are absolutely delighted to have such generous support for the cause from two blue chip brands.

The ads have been appearing regularly on the stocks and shares pages. It's always tricky to know how successful ads are, but we DO know of at least two significant donations which came as a result of this wonderful opportunity. Keep a look out for them!!!
