Social Media Workshops for Local Support Organisations

Do you want to find new ways to communicate with the groups and organisations you work with?

Have you heard the term social media or read about Facebook and Twitter but not known how they could apply to your work supporting and developing local organisations and volunteer groups?

Social media can be used to strengthen how organisations reach volunteers or to help them to campaign more effectively. This is something many local support providers and volunteering organisations are not realising; potentially missing out on how it can support development of volunteer led projects and groups.

Red Foundation and NAVCA are running workshops in all regions between May and November 2010 which in addition to explaining the types of social media available will enable you to place these tools into the context of your own organisation and through a practical social media surgery session give you the confidence to continue in their use. 

Details will be released in “SKiLD bites” and on http://www.skild.org.uk/ shortly, however as demand is likely to be high, please register your interest now by emailing events@navca.org.uk (reference NewComms). Places for this full day workshop will cost £35 per person.

Workshops will be run jointly by the Modernising Volunteering and ICT Workstreams, funded by Capacitybuilders National Support Services programme.
