Why is St David’s day not in my personal Sunday start diary refill?
For this particular diary, Filofax is given guidance of information from the Church of England. When St David’s Day falls on a Sunday and coincides with the second Sunday of Lent it will be omitted. This will occur again in this diary in: 2026, 2028, 2037, 2043, 2048, 2054, 2065 and 2071. All of our other diaries do print St David’s day as they are not governed by the Church of England guidance.

Yes, all of our Filofax organiser refills will fit the appropriate size Clipbook.
Can I choose a Clipbook refill for my organiser?
Yes, all of our Clipbook refills will fit the appropriate size organiser, as these all have a ring mechanism.
Are Filofax Notebook refills compatible with a Filofax Organiser?
No, the Filofax Notebook has a spiral binding and our organisers have a ring mechanism. Therefore, these are completely different concepts.
Can I add a different notebook to The Original Folio?
Yes, The Original Folio is compatible with most notebooks from other brands in the corresponding size.
Can I register my organiser?
After carefully reviewing the Organiser registration, and the responses that we received, Filofax has taken the decision to no longer offer this service.
How many sheets of paper can my organiser hold?
Please check our Size Guide >
How can I clean my organiser?
We recommend that you avoid exposing your leather organiser to any harsh elements such as moisture, bright lights or direct heat. If your leather organiser gets dirty or soiled we suggest that you wipe the area with a damp cloth. Smooth leather will need to be cleaned with good quality neutral leather cleaner. If your suede organiser cover or interior needs to be cleaned, ensure you use a dirt resistant finish and a dry brush. Fabric covers and any metal features can be buffed and cleaned with a dry cloth.
