Welcome to the 52nd issue of the Networking Newsletter, the third of the monthly Networking Newsletter issues! Obviously February was a shorter month than usual, so there's a little less to report in this issue, which also saves on the printing bill! That's a good thing since finances are scarce but I'm sure you will agree there's no other publication that is as good value as money (or has such an informative, up to date, web site).
This issue is a little shorter and may have a few more typos. But I thought it best to get it out to you rough but sooner! Hopefully work pressures will be less at the end of March so April's issue may even get to you on time! (And who said going monthly was a good idea?!)
Articles for the future newsletters should be sent by either using the online form, by email or to 6 Mount Street, Manchester M2 5NS, or fax 0161 834 5797 (marked FAO: Networking Newsletter). Articles should be 50-250 words long, preferably with a picture or other graphic, and include your full contact details. Please send us high resolution images (250DPI, full colour and not compressed if a JPEG) so I can use them in the printed newsletter.
The main stories in this issue are listed below. Also check out the STOP PRESS section for breaking news items.

Events Calendar
The main events calendar has hundreds of activities and meetings coming up over the next few months. Please use this calendar both to find things to get involved in, but also to plan your activities - try to work with others planning similar things at the time you were thinking of and avoid clashes, where possible.Regular events, such as monthly group meetings and fortnightly working weekends, are listed separately to the main calendar. Not that they are less important but to save repetitive typing!
Please let us know of your activities so we can post them here so others can read them and get involved them.
Check out the most up-to-date and comprehensive contacts list of campaigners in and around Manchester. We're often imitated, the information copied, but we're never beaten for quantity of contacts and the reliability of them being correct.Enquiries about the Networking Newsletter Project should be made to:
