    Target MD magazine – special feature on Scotland

    Hi All

    Just to let you know the first edition of Target MD magazine and Target Research for 2014 are now up online here: http://www.bit.ly/1jRavBb

    Target MD has a special feature on Scotland so you’ll meet just some of the outstanding supporters we have up there doing all sorts of amazing things for us in the way of campaigning and fundraising. It was a wonderful edition to work on, and now the work starts on the Welsh edition!

    Do enjoy the read and as always, I’d love to know what you think.

    Happy Friday, y’all, and have a great weekend
    Ruth

    Thanks Ruth.

    Lots of useful stuff. Best of the Web, Our awards, important Advocacy update, Olympian article
    and piece on New Guidelines on Clinical Neuromuscular Issues.

    Bumper issue !

    Feedback – these days find it easier to read on tablet than laptop.

    Thanks so much, taungfox. And thanks for your valuable feedback – does issuu behave any differently when you read on the tablet, as opposed to the laptop? I’m keen to have the magazine as easily accessible as possible.

    I think it is simply that on the laptop it relies more on an accurate “mouse click”, which
    my affected hand muscles have progressively more problems with. The tablet is just a simple swipe back and forth.

    This is magnified when I have to “zoom in”, hard to control of laptop mouse or mousepad but
    on touchsreen it is just a completely responsive “pinch” in and out.

    Thanks, taungfox – that’s helpful to know. And Gill, thanks for the feedback – I’m glad you enjoyed the magazine. It was such a privilege to visit Scotland and get to meet some supporters up there and share their stories.

    Hi All

    Hope you’re doing well? I feel like I’ve become a proper stranger around here … sorry.

    A few things about Target MD:

    1. the latest edition, which focuses on our work and our wonderful supporters in Wales, is up online for your reading pleasure: http://www.muscular-dystrophy.org/about/what_we_do/key_publications/targetmd/7508_target_md_and_target_research_2014_2_of_4
    2. we’ve also put a reader survey online, as we’re keen to know what you think of the magazines and to hear if you’d like to suggest any changes. We want to bring you publications you want to read, so please take a few minutes – ok, about 15 – of your time to let us know what you think. The survey is here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/targetreader
    3. the next edition of Target MD is focusing on our work and our supporters in Northern Ireland. Please do let me know if you have any story ideas – I’d love to hear from you.

    :ty:

    Have a good evening
    Ruth
