Geograph Announcements
Calendar 2025
The Geograph calendar for 2025 is now available for you to order. There is a new look to the cover but otherwise the same features apply as last year; as well as selecting from your own submission you have the option of selecting other people's submissions, but these may not have a high resolution version attached which could affect the quality of the printed version.
The main change is that we are faced this year with significant increases in the price from our printer, due mainly to increases in materials and wages costs, the latter related to increases in the national minimum wage. In particular, the cost of preparing each individual order for the press has reached a point where this has to be reflected in what is labelled as the 'post & packing' element. This is a base cost which is unrelated to the number of calendars that an individual member orders and is reflected in the increase from £3 to £5.
The unit calendar cost is increasing from £8.50 to £9. We are aware that members do not have bottomless pockets and even the 50p increase does in practice represent a lesser percentage increase than the increase in materials and press-run costs that we are being quoted. The minimum order quantity of 2 calendars remains unchanged.
We believe that the price still compares very favourably with commercial products and hope that members will continue to support the Calendar project as in past years.
Go to "Calendar 2025" on the Forum menu to order, and please order as soon as possible!
