<em>Context<\/em> \u2013 only on pdf or online.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018It might seem like we could save money on print \u2013 and even more on post \u2013 and maybe even save members a few pounds on their fees!\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018However the paper and post costs are only a part of the expense, as editorial, design and production costs eat up lots too, so savings are less than expected!&#8217;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;And even our wonderful advertisers could figure out that a pdf with their advert isn\u2019t as valuable as one that\u2019s sitting in front of an attentive IHBC member.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So if you don\u2019t need your paper copy of <em>Context<\/em>, why not make the best use of it for all our sakes, and pass it on to a colleague or friend.&nbsp; That way you can educate and inform, while also giving them a taste of what IHBC membership can offer.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018You might also usefully mention \u2013 in passing of course \u2013 that IHBC member costs are significantly lower than many professional bodies.&nbsp;
