PAGB Patronage for Exhibitions & Events
The detailed conditions in respect of PAGB Patronage are given below. However, it may be of help to briefly outline the objects of the system of Patronage and to indicate the type and standard of the event or exhibition which will merit the award.
It is intended that the award of Patronage be considered for Exhibitions of an Open, National or Regional character being events of some standing which are not eligible for other forms of patronage. The award may also be given to Federationsí own Exhibitions. In addition, it may also be given to specific events which are of an occasional yet major nature, for example a 50th or 75th Anniversary of a Federation.
If you are seeking patronage for an event then consider the following Conditions carefully. If in doubt approach the member from your Federation on the Alliance executive committee.
Please bear in mind that Patronage is a privilege; it will not be granted automatically. It is the firm intention of the Alliance to ensure that only events deserving of Patronage receive the award. On acceptance the organisers will be permitted to show on all entry forms, advertisement, etc, that Patronage has been granted. The Alliance will then allow the applicant to purchase appropriate Medals for award at the event or exhibition.
Note: from 1st January 2008, the cost of each Medal will be £11.00, and each Ribbon £1.00. Further details can be found in the PAGB Patronage Guidance and Application form (see below).
