Children in Hospital Ireland: Social Media Training for Children's Illness Organisations

Wednesday 10th March from 9:00-12:30 

Description

This online workshop will give participants information, tools and techniques to use social media to their advantage.

Firstly, it will help participants decide which social media sites are of the most use to them. It will then offer practical tips and advice to participants on how they can most effectively use these social media accounts, for example to grow their brand, aid in fundraising and further their lobbying.

Who should attend

All individuals/organisations involved in supporting sick children and/or their families are welcome to attend.
