THE MEDIA –
GETTING HEARD
Communicating our case and our campaigns amidst the blizzard of
social media, mainstream press and the thousands of competing voices
there are can seem daunting and can yield meagre and temporary
results. These two schools aim to increase our effectiveness and make
sure that we get our messages out their and understand how to make the
best of local regional and national media outlets.
The first one day course is aimed at local Branch representatives, the
second two day course at national campaigning and communications
officers. Both courses will put the question of making our voices heard in
the context of the changing face of the local and national media.
