Using templates and briefing correctly

Templates are provided in InDesign, Quark Xpress and MS Word at the approved formats,
and have the correct fonts, colours, grids, and Logo position embedded. Make sure that your agency or designer has access to the Brand Standards and templates, and a knowledge of
our strategy and values to enable them to use them correctly, as any materials that are off
brand can be withdrawn.

For more information

The above information is only a summary of the Brand Standards in this area. Please download the relevant Brand Standards section and any templates or files from the Downloads box on this page. All internal or external communications require sign-off prior to production by your Brand Champion - you will need to allow enough time for this to take place. Any further questions should also be directed to your Brand Champion. Find their details on Managing
