Each logo represents the way MU has responded to current trends in community awareness.
Our new logo, which will be phased in over a couple of years, has a number of key elements.
- Anglican indicates that we are church-based.
- Mothers Union emphasizes our connection with the worldwide movement and you will note that the apostrophe has been dropped.
- Australia shows that our work is centred in, though not limited to, this country.
Our new symbol can be read in many ways:
- A mother reaching down to embrace a child
- A child reaching up to their mother
- A pregnant woman supported by others
- Surrounded by family, yet focused on children
- A parent first, but with other interests and concerns
- A parent with support structures surrounding her/him
- … and any others that you can see!
