You can send the information as an attached file (word or pdf - word is preferred) or copy the text from your document into the email's body.

Once we've published the text on the website (usually 24-48 hours from receiving your email), we'll send you an email with a link to the page so you can check that the information is correct.

The advert will expire on the deadline or stay live for a maximum of 3 months.

 

Submitting an advert for the bulletin: 

If you want the details of your advert to be included in the weekly email bulletins (delivered at weekends) the closing date for submission is Thursday at 1pm. There are 2 bulletins:

Community Exchange - Events, Fundraising, Services, Requests, Grants and Training

Activelink - Jobs, Volunteering and Tenders

The bulletin provides a teaser introduction to the advert with a link that directs readers to the full advert on the Activelink website. Each posting on the bulletin circulates for 2 weeks. We have to maintain the bulletin at a reasonable size and we strive to provide all our users visibility in the bulletin. Please note that we prioritise our contributors in the bulletin as a thanks for supporting the service.

NOTE: Activelink relies on the financial support of individuals and organisations to cover ongoing costs for managing the Activelink website and the email bulletins - your support is vital for the ongoing maintenance and development of the services. We presently employ two people full time and spend over 3,500 hours working on Activelink each year, along with other costs such as office space, electricity, phone bills, hosting costs, technical costs, and so on. Activelink's only source of funding is its users; if nobody contributes then it cannot continue.

We suggest the following financial contributions when posting advertisements (vacancies, training courses) on Activelink (if your organisation can afford it):

  • small organisations / local community groups: Euro 74.38 (+ 21% VAT) = Euro 90
  • larger groups / networks / charities / NGO's: Euro 148.76 (+ 21% VAT) = Euro 180
  • other amounts are welcome, you decide :-)

Please remember, the Community Exchange bulletin is distributed to just under 10,000 people and the Activelink bulletin to just under 12,000 people. The readership is composed of those working in the charity, community and voluntary sector so your information is delivered directly to your target audience. We think the contribution guidelines reflect the reach and value of the Activelink service.

If you are planning to use Activelink to regularly advertise vacancies, training courses, etc, we could agree a fee based on the number of submissions for 3 / 6 / 12 months - contact info@activelink.ie for more details.
