Here is a terrific new way in which you can help us to increase our funding without digging into your own pockets.

Free membership of www.ib-long.com, gives you direct access to a shopping portal with almost 500 of the most important high street shops including M&S, B&Q, Boots, Thomas Cook, Currys, Ebay and Tesco, and important service providers such as BT, Tiscali, Tmobile and many others.

With every pound you spend, you will receive up to 15% back for yourself and opera by definition will also receive the same amount again in cash!

All for doing something that you are probably doing anyway. On-line shopping!

Shopping prices are the same, but the rewards are much greater than the usual credit card or store card points and, for instance, you may get as much as £25 for buying your car or home insurance via ib-long and, of course, so would opera by definition.

WHAT TO DO?

1. Simply log into www.ib-long.com and register as a member. It's free!
2. Nominate opera by definition as your chosen beneficiary in the first space.
3. Once you are registered just go shopping! Then watch the money that you make for yourself and for us RISE!

This is a great opportunity for us to raise some much-needed new funds. Thank you for helping.
