As event organiser, you are responsible for promotion and ticket sales. Its your job to spread the word and tell people about your event. Sounds daunting doesn't it? But don't worry, the best publicity is often free: word of mouth and social networking sites like Facebook are now de rigeur, so post your event online and talk to your friends, persaude them to help spread the word.

Don't forget to tell us about your event, we will be delighted to publicise it on this website and promote it among our Facebook followers too. Email our Fundraising Team, or call them on 01235 541211 for more information.

The Media

Engaging the local media is a really great way to publicise your event and generate more interest in our work. Email Fiona, our PR and Media Manager, or call her on 01235 534211 who will be able to pass on advice and tips for working with the media.

Finally... ... make sure you take lots of photos on the day as we may be able to feature some on our website and even in the local press following the event. But please be aware that you must ask permission from a parent or guardian before taking any photos of children and they must give permission for any images you intend to use for publicity purposes.
