Consumer guide promotional campaign launched

homeworkA new campaign to promote Consumer Focus Scotland’s series of specialist consumer guides has been launched. The guides provide detailed information and advice on a range of issues important to consumers in Scotland, including education law, the legal system, buying and selling a house and maintaining tenements.

Key organisations and individuals are being contacted and targeted advertising undertaken to raise awareness of the guides, what they offer to consumers and how they can be accessed.
