    What are you wanting to copyright? With a lot of things copyright is automatic. Check out the IPO's website. Their FAQ sections are pretty good. http://www.ipo.gov.uk/

    It may be that what you actually want is a trademark. The IPO (Hermia has linked them above) is an excellent site, and if you don't see it on the site, just lift the phone and ring them. They're very helpful.
  • Hi, Thanks bery much for that, I'll check the website out and maybe give them a ring.
