Social Media Champion Twitter
I took on the role of Regional Twitter champion from mid-July 2019. I tweet for my Nantwich club so ensure that I mention the region, which extends coverage. The region has 563 followers. The main focus of July was the International Convention in Kuala Lumpur. From there I made 38 tweets, and the region was mentioned in 67 tweets. This represented a significant increase in activity 375% for tweets, and 140% for mentions. Additionally, there were 188 profile visits and 11.2K impressions (i.e. appearing in followers timeline). The most popular tweet was about the establishment of the new Africa Federation………..Caroline Marsh
