Revolution for  the Gideons UK

The charity GideonsUK has been forced to change its name following a turbulent period marked by equality issues and legal proceedings. The charity, once the British arm of Gideons International, is now called ‘GOOD NEWS for Everyone!’.

It has also adopted a new logo, in the form of an open Bible, in order to comply with a ruling of the intellectual property court.

The Gideons are best known for placing what have long been affectionately known as ‘Gideon Bibles’ in hotels, hospitals, prisons and elsewhere.
