Leaflets for display stand....
I noticed this request on the www.youthwork.co.uk message board for leaflets / booklets to put on an information stand - here are my thoughts...

- The home office also have a series of leaflets on various things, ie, making a victim personal statement. Maybe they have something you might want a copy of.

- Spring Harvest has produced some brief leaflets called Big issues
- See this post about booklets for those moving from primary to secondary school. Similarly, see this post about Life Actually for those leaving school
