FoWM Merchandise

<FoWM Flower Mug

During the campaign to gain registration for the Meadow, thousands of pounds were raised by the community to pay the costs of legal representation. A successful and popular way of fund-raising was the production and sale of FoWM merchandise. Many supporters said that buying FoWM cards and mugs made them feel part of the campaign as well as helping to spread the word.

It is still necessary to raise funds to help cover running costs and FoWM merchandise is still for sale. Click here to view our latest catalogue containing items – old and new – that are available for purchase: 2010 Catalogue (pdf, 356 K)
