Communications for a Big Society
The Big Society is now well and truly on our radar, but can a charity and community sector facing unprecedented funding pressure make it all happen?
Come and meet leading Big Society minds and help find new ideas and solutions for our sector.
The Big Society can’t just happen and then be communicated – communication has to be at the heart of the process. Can you coordinate local action? Does your local authority really understand what your audiences need? Will your communications make all the difference to your future?
This one-day conference will be of special interest to you if you’re responsible for communications, community engagement and driving the Big Society agenda, to:
- sharpen your communications: your survival toolkit
- reach into the communities you serve: advocate and act for them
- prove your worth in an ultra competitive funding environment
Chaired by: Mark Easton, Home Editor, BBC
Sessions include:
- The Big Society and the community.
- Big Lottery Fund – how work in communities is changing, how organisations & groups can work together, and how the Big Lottery Fund can help communities and charities respond to the Big Society agenda.
- Ideas and influencing on the agenda!
- Work constructively and creatively with CSR.
- Sarah Hunter, Google – the Big Digital Society.
- Gordon Hunter, Lincolnshire Community Foundation – make your project go further, ensuring a legacy.
