Dear Editor
"PREPARING FOR WINTER" 2005/2006 NHIC PRESS PACKS
I am very pleased to welcome you to another of our popular and highly successful National Home Improvement Council 'Preparing for Winter' Press Pack.
True to form it contains 14 new generic articles. These cover many domestic topics and advice including winter maintenance and other subjects relating to generally improving a home.
Also, there is a broad range of NHIC Members' press releases providing some very useful information. I hope you will feel free to use them often as you wish. If you require further information or images, please contact either me or the relevant NHIC Member on the special list of contacts elsewhere on this CD.
Our Members are always pleased to hear from you so do give them a ring, they'll be pleased to help. And your readers will be interested to know that many of our Members provide exclusive guarantees and consumer warranty schemes that are specifically applicable to their products and services. And they all adhere to the strictest codes of practice.
In addition, if there are any home improvement subjects that you would like to feature in your pages but are not covered by our Press Pack, please let me know. We'll do our best to help.
You will find the NHIC logo on this CD, which we hope you may consider using whenever you publish one of the Press Pack articles, adding that extra touch of authenticity to your feature. Also we welcome you and your readers to visit our website - www.nhic.org.uk
The NHIC is constantly highlighting all aspects of home improvement and energetically lobbies government and other decision-makers on many related issues, not least of all the reduction of VAT on products and services involving home improvements. We continue to seek Government support in this respect.
As I mentioned before should you require further information on any aspect of the NHIC or these articles you can contact me on 020 7828 8230 or Andrew Leech on 01753 884216.
Yours faithfully
Graham S Ponting
