Communicating the right message, knowing how to present yourself and your organisation on your website, social media channels and elsewhere can make the difference between whether you get funding, someone decides to volunteer, or they decide to retweet your message to their followers.

In this small group introductory workshop, we will discuss the importance of stories and organisational messaging. We will dissect charity websites and social media channels – what works, what doesn’t and what could be improved so your website is compelling and your social media channels tell a better story about what you do.

Volunteers are often an essential part of how a nonprofit delivers its work. Yet the recruitment, management and retention of volunteers can often be a challenge.
