We will make it easy for you to tell us if you would like to receive marketing communications from us and hear more about our work and the ways in which you would like to receive this information (post, email, SMS and phone).  We will not send you marketing material if you tell us that you do not wish to receive it.  There are a variety of ways you can do this.
