Frome Town Council is offering a training session to help local community groups improve their social media skills.
Knowledgeable social media expert, Dawn Denton from Frome Diary, will be leading the training session which will be held on Thursday 21st February, 11am – 1pm at Frome Town Hall.
It will help attendees to understand how social media could impact their organisation and learn the best practices for using the most popular platforms.
Cllr Kate Bielby said, “Harnessing the power of social media can help community organisations connect and communicate easily and quickly with volunteers, customers and the wider community. This type of training has always been very well attended previously, which is why Frome Town Council is offering it to local groups again.”
The benefits of learning how to get the most out of social media channels such as Facebook, Twitter and Instagram are huge. Using these free tools can be an effective way of raising awareness and creating engaged communities.
The training is designed to suit all, whether you’re a long-time social media user or just getting started. Tickets costs £20 per person and you can book your place here: www.buytickets .at/frometowncouncil/196406
![Town-wide programme brings month of social activities in May
A month-long programme of activities and events is set to take place across the town in May as part of an initiative encouraging residents to connect with themselves, each other and local places.
The scheme, Frome Connects, will run throughout the month and includes a mix of social activities, creative events and informal meet-ups in community spaces.
Highlights include the return of Dress Up Fridays, which began during lockdown and invites people to wear formal clothing or fancy dress and turn the town into their catwalk each Friday.
Set-piece moments include a Kate Bush-themed flashmob (Running Up That [Catherine] Hill) on 30th May, followed by a bell peal at St John’s Church where the bells will play Running Up That Hill.
There will also be a whole-town drone photo on Friday 30th May, with everyone encouraged to ‘look up’ at around 12.30pm.
