The Women's Health Program now has a set of ten pull-up banners which are freestanding and stored in individual carry bags for easy transport. They are available for loan to organisations and groups in Tasmania, so if you have an event, forum, open day or expo and would like to have one or more of the banners for your display, simply click on 'Info for Service Providers' in the resources menu on the right side of this page. You will be able to download a pdf file to view the content of each banner, and a booking form which gives you all the details for borrowing the banners.
