Posters, and keeping up pressure.

We have had a kind offer of some printing of large posters. So the 20-or-so best sites can have a poster of 85cm & 60cm or more. If you are in a really good place (near the station, on a main road or have a LARGE noticeboard in a busy location) please let me know! ('portrait' format also available).
Can anybody offer to print a few hundred A4 posters for other locations (and some A3, too?)(donations of money also welcome).
We are still looking for people to distribute leaflets - on trains, and at stations, especially Wellingborough, Luton, Beeston, Oakham and Melton Mowbray.
Meanwhile, if you are able to get to Kettering for 1-4pm on Wed 13th Sept, please put it in your diary. I have a list of 50+ questions that we might want to ask at consultation events, and I can’t ask them all myself!
…and keep the evening of Thu 21st Sept free too. I believe there will be a public meeting in Bedford, but I’m trying to confirm with MPs.
Please also keep sharing the petition: in the last week (since you last heard from me) we have passed 3,000 signatures, and now 3,500! Thanks so much everybody! I’m preparing a _full_ response to the consultation that I will share with you once it is ready, to make it easy for you to respond fully and add a lot of extra weight to your petition signature.
Please if you haven't yet, take a look at fb.me/EastMidsRailCampaign.
