Huddersfield Social Media Surgery

Monday 16th November, 4.30pm to 7pm
Huddersfield Media Centre (Cafe), Northumberland Street, Huddersfield HD1 1RL

Are you interested in using blogs, text messages, Facebook, Twitter and other free web sites (sometimes called “social media”) to help a group or organisation that you belong to?

Do you already have a web site for your organisation that is difficult or expensive to update? Are you looking for an easier way to promote your activities or to share information, photos and videos online?

Huddersfield Social Media Surgery is a free advice session for community and voluntary groups, clubs, societies and small arts organisations. Come along to find out how you can use free web sites and services to organise activities, promote events, raise funds, collect feedback from your participants and keep a record of everything you do.

At the surgery you’ll get chance to sit down and have a cup of tea with someone who understands about web sites and tell them about your group or organisation and what you do. Then you’ll be able to look at the kinds of web sites and services that you might find helpful, and see what similar groups are doing.

The session is open to anyone who thinks it will be useful - drop in any time between 4.30pm and 7pm for free advice.

The surgery is being organised by Huddersfield Social Media, a group of volunteers who are committed to using all forms of media technology to connect people. There will be further social media events next year.
