Dear members,
 
For World Lupus Day, along with Ines, from Lupus Portugal, we have created a social media project to be shared on Facebook and Twitter. Ines has created the project in canva.com. There is one image per day, which can be dowloaded following the instructions below. If you wish to translate the messages you are free to do so and Ines will give you an editable access to canva.com.
 
If you prefer not to translate and simply use the English version, you can contact Ines for access to the jpeg files in a dropbox.  https://www.dropbox.com/…/AAA1u-sMgjclNmOjSotd-HGGa…
 
If you are experiencing any technical difficulties, you can contact Ines through skype :  ines.ribeiro, email : ines.ribeiro.simoes@gmail.com, or Facebook messenger https://www.facebook.com/ines.ribeiro.simoes
 
Example images from 1^st May and 10^th May
 

You can also download a Word document containing a 1 pager on “what is Lupus” and information on the “Kick Lupus” theme that we discussed in Wuerzburg.
 
Finally, we remind you that as discussed during the 2016 convention in Würzburg, we do not have a LUPUS EUROPE World Lupus Day campaign separate from that of the World Lupus Federation.
 
The World Lupus Federation WLD artwork for this year will remain the same as that of last year, with additional initiatives added to help spread more awareness and visibility.
 
The artwork can be downloaded via http://www.worldlupusday.org/index.html .
Click on “download toolkit” and then “World Lupus Day” flyers. If you are having any trouble downloading, please contact Katharine Katharine@lupus-europe.org and she will send you the files by e-mail.
 
We would ask groups to please give us a quick recap of what you are doing in your country to celebrate World Lupus Day. We can then share some of your initiatives via the Lupus Europe blog and newsletter.
 
After your events, we would love to publish your photos!
