The 24th – 30th of April 2017 is National Stationery Week. It is a week to celebrate the written word. In a world that is turning increasingly digital, paper and pen is still number one. There is nothing like the immediacy of pen on paper. No batteries, no storage, no cloud, just you and your thoughts.
According to YouGov research commissioned by National Stationery Week, 94% of adults think that writing by hand is important and 97% think it is important for children to be taught to write. Just as encouraging, 91% of children aged between 8 and 15 think it is important to be able to write by hand and 86% of business managers expect candidates for jobs to be able to write by hand, as well as have keyboard skills.
Gilt Edged loves stationery. Our diaries started the company 30 years ago and we continue to introduce new stationery products to this day. Alongside our famous diaries we also manufacture Notebooks and Calendars. In addition, our extensive range of promotional products includes many other stationery items. From pencils to pens and post-it notes to planners, we can provide the very best in stationery.
This year we introduced the myNo Journal, a combination of ideas from our diary and notebook range. This undated journal has been designed to help you plan and record your life. As a promotional product it offers the all year round branding exposure of a traditional diary, whilst offering the shelf life of a notebook. For all you trendy people that like to Bullet Journal, myNo Journal provides a great Bullet Journaling experience. We have even created a handy guide to help you start.
All our Notebooks, Journals and Diaries are available with optional pen loops. These make a great addition to any promotional book especially when combined with a branded pen or pencil. Whether you are looking for a simple wooded pencil or a highly polished metal executive pen, we have something in our range for you.
Stationery is personal. It stays close to its user, making it the perfect promotional item. So, let’s get more people putting pen to paper and writing more often.
Although this week is National Stationery Week it doesn’t mean you can’t celebrate stationery all throughout the year! So contact us today to find out how we can help you to create the perfect promotional stationery item for your company or organisation.
