Saffron organises social media workshop for charities
Saffron is delighted to be organising a social media workshop in collaboration with the not for profit partnership Time &Talents, the reputation management consultancy ReputationInc and Whizz-Kidz, a charity for disabled young people.
The workshop, taking place on Thursday 29 July 2010, is designed to help charity and community organisations overcome the challenges they face with social media and to enhance their services using the platforms that have transformed the way we share, communicate and learn.
Kim George, from the award winning instructional design team at Saffron, will be co-facilitating the workshop, presenting case studies of organisations successfully using social media and running surgery-style sessions. In these sessions, charity representatives will have the opportunity to share their real life social media challenges with media professionals and gain tips on raising their profile, promoting their services, spreading ideas and gaining volunteers via social media.
Saffron is thrilled to continue the exciting work it’s doing in the social learning arena, and to extend our people’s knowledge of social media tools to the voluntary sector. So, if you’re from a charity or community organisation wanting to find out more about social media or if you’re a social media enthusiast or marketing executive who can offer guidance and advice, we want to hear from you!
