They are very organised and willing to help as a not-for-profit inventors club. I think they hold meetings in Southampton too. I'm not aware of any clubs in/around Brighton. There's the Round Table in Croydon: www.croydonrti.com There used to be a Round Table in Plaistow, West Sussex run by Graham Rawlinson. Not sure if it's still alive or not? Check it out and let me know. graham@dagr.demon.co.uk 01403 871159 The club in the Isle of Wight closed but the founders, Paul and Dawn Lizant-Bone (it's actually Bonee) are always happy to help. I spoke with Dawn this past March about a vote we needed from UK inventors and she contacted twenty to ask them to read and consider voting. Ph: 1983 822588 They are professional inventors: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/2092832.stm I think the one in Cantebury, Kent might be too far? : www.kent.ac.uk/enterprise/generic/inventors.php Probably Southampton and Croydon would be your best bets. Keep me posted how it goes and what's there and not. Kind regards, Penny Hi Yvonne,

I have had the same initial response to my invention from Jerry Jerome. All looked promising in the Smart Start Evauation Program. The next step would be a call to Jerry Jerome but I don't thing I will bother now. Just thought I would check up on Inventor Link before I did anything else. I am glad that I did!!I live in Brighton so I would appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction to get some sound advice. I am probably in the same situation as a lot of people with ideas but no money to do anything about them. Thanks in advance. Hello Penny.

Sorry haven’t gotten back to you sooner but I’ve been poorly. There is help in the UK it just has to be found is all. Being a US subject I am very concerned for UK inventors as I know there is much free help in the UK though sometimes it’s hard to find. Last year I had scheduled a seminar series up/down the east and west coast at inventor clubs but due to schedule changes could not make it. My goal in 2008 is to get you guys focused on how to approach the process from a business/marketing perspective by rescheduling the tour. Along with help from UK journalist friends, you’ll read about it in your local presses and on inventor club websites. 1. TO EMMA: What do you mean "you are gutted?" It’s about forty minutes to Birmingham from your general area. Why don’t you visit the free nonprofit inventors club there? It meets monthly. They’re a great bunch of people. Richard Brosch and Peter Knight are awfully nice people: www.birmingham-inventors.org.uk You might also contact Sharon Oakley at the University of Northampton - 01604-892626 . She hosted the Enterprise Club back in March and may have “connections” for you (inventor Trevor Baylis was a speaker) - it’s worth a try. I looked around Kettering, Milton Keynes and Coventry and didn’t find any clubs or sources. 2. TO MIKO: Re your post stating you were offered a “free” patent search, patent, and prototype. I advise inventors to get statements like that in writing "before" they pay. It’s not everyday one reads in a blog that an invention promotion employee indicates manufacturers will pick up one’s invention and it’s only a case of "not if but when they pick it up." WOW! That’s quite a promise or to me it reads as a guarantee, if true. Astounding! A first! Usually invention companies indicate they can’t guarantee inventions will be “picked up” so if what you are alleging is true, get it in writing. As to being also offered “free blueprints”, one assumes then you intend to manufacture it yourself or outsource manufacturing therefore need blueprints? Production blueprints can be costly. Prototypes can be costly. Lawyers can be costly but if true (alleging Nancy Ford told you they’ll do it for free) were it me, I’d get it in writing. It is a very generous offer – so just make sure you didn’t misunderstand what was promised. According to several legal eagles any invention company operating in the US (not falling under the "exclusionary" proviso in the American Inventors Protection Act of 1999), is required to post and issue to inventors no matter where in the world they market to their: success rate; numbers of inventors who made more than they paid; etc etc. A Chief Asst.legal eagle at the patent office sent me a link and talked to me about it a few days ago. He called me again today wanting more info about this blog. He’d talked to an associate at the “Solicitor General’s” office and the “Ethics and Disciple” division along with an attorney at the Federal Trade Commission (enforcement arm of the US patent office) about the issue of whether US invention companies marketing overseas – are subject to the provisions in the Act. All viewpoints were generally any registered US invention company irrespective of where it markets in the world falls under the “American Inventors Protection Act” especially when they (paraphrase) create, assemble, compile and send from the US. I also talked to a staff attorney friend of mine last week in the Federal Trade Commission who didn’t want to go on the record with a legal opinion but did validate what I heard today from the Chief Asst. legal eagle at the patent office. Interestingly, many US invention companies list the answers to questions found in the Act on their contracts or as addendums to them. Additionally, an inventor pointed out to us that the acronym USA has been added under the two testimonials. If true there is no question they fall under the Act. I have been asked to submit blog details and off-line emails Ron and I have been receiving. It has been suggested UK inventors must be told how to start filing complaints against US invention companies. The patent office wants to hear about them as does the Federal Trade Commission (there's an online “complaint” form posted on the Federal Trade Commission website at www.ftc.gov) The patent office wants all inventors to follow the below format when mailing a complaint to them about an invention promoter: “The complaint should fairly and impartially summarize the action or inaction of the invention promoter/promotion firm that is the basis of the complaint. The purpose of the American Inventors Protection Act of 1999 is to provide complainants with a forum for publicly making a complaint against an invention promoter/promotion firm. Submissions that do not provide the requested information will be returned. If a complainant's address is not provided, the submission will be destroyed. A complaint can be withdrawn by the complainant or named customer at any time prior to its publication. No originals of documents should be included with the complaint. Complaints should be mailed to the following address: Mail Stop 24 Director of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office P.O.

The blue prints, protortype, further evaluations, lawyers etc etc, they would pay for, all i had to do was stump up the magical £4940 to get started. It seemed a little strange to me as i already have a protortype that i made, and what was the five grand for, so after hovering over the PAY button for a while i decided to do some digging on Inventor-link. I found you and thankfully didn't send any money. I live in East Yorkshire and my invention is a kitchen utensil. Have you any advice of where to turn next? Thanks very much for all you are doing, God bless you, Penny Ballou. Hello,

Let me point something out, it is not illegal what they are doing. They merely provide what I personally deem a crock of canned (blank). The fact UK inventors are willing to believe what they read and are told over phone lines without intense backfround research - is their loss. It's just part of due diligence. You have to do it these days. Notice how allegedly they will not answer references or success questions based on someone's post above? Clue #1. Notice how they are someone indicates they say, "all money is given to help the homeless." Can you think with that? I sure can't. What you can dear is to stay close to home in especially when a beginner. On the flip side, if you had a saleable and protected product readied for overseas distribution and/or licensing - that is a different issue. The UK has what I consider the best system of help available. The problem is knowing where to find it.
