Here are some examples of logos for each of the above

organisations:

Using what you have learned about each of the organisations,

choose one of them to design a new logo for.

A logo represents an organisation, so include imagery which

symbolises their aims and their work.

Remember, a good logo should be:

Simple - your logo needs to be easily identifiable at a glance.

Memorable - an effective logo should be memorable.

Versatile - a good logo can be used in a variety of sizes and colours.

Appropriate – you need to stick to the main focus of the

organisation.

You may design a logo for more than one organisation if you wish.
