Region Communications
The Communications team has been very busy since the last report in September. Region Newsletter Editor Doreen produced an excellent Publication Nov/Dec which we hope you have seen – if not you will find on the website under Region News. Doreen would like to thank clubs for sending such interesting articles, and keeping to the prescribed length 250 words & 2 photos.
Social Media Campaign #16Days of activism against gender based violence 25thNov – 10thDecember was a very successful campaign – we were able to post different items daily throughout the campaign using information from club Programme Reports to highlight project work in our Region. Many clubs joined in the campaign SI Nantwich posted daily and a number of clubs wore orange and are included in the Federation Flickr Album on SIGBI website – see https://www.flickr.com/photos/sigbi/albums/72157702566325891
