Bringing a national campaign to a local level

By harnessing the skills and experience of the voluntary and community sector we are able to get the messages of a national campaign to audiences at a very local level. This film shows, in the words of our clients, partners and end users, how our community engagement services can make a difference. Thanks to John Askew (Digital UK), Claire Petty (North Yorkshire and York Forum) and Lily and Mabel (group members) for their support in making this film.

The impact of outreach

Our community engagement and awareness-raising campaigns give a ‘human face’ to an information campaign. This film describes the value of providing this human face to organisations wanting to get important information to people who need extra help. It gives a snapshot of what this involves at a practical level and the impact it can make on an individual. Thanks to John Askew (Digital UK), Peter Hellawell (Community Action Hampshire) and Chris Tulk (a local resident) for their support in making this film.

The value of working through existing networks of trusted organisations

Our outreach programmes are designed to engage individuals through trusted voices within their communities. Reaching people in an environment they are comfortable in and which facilitates peer-to-peer communication increases their receptiveness to messaging. For many people, face-to-face contact is key to developing trust and encouraging behaviour change.
