Getting media coverage is a fantastic way to tell your story, boost local awareness and ensure that as many people as possible in your community hear about your event or local Green Week. It might sound daunting, but this training will provide tips and guidance to make it easier.

We’ve teamed up with the Local Storytelling Exchange to run this session to equip you with the fundamental knowledge and tools to achieve local media hits and feel confident engaging with local media in the run up to Great Big Green Week.

This training session covers the importance of local and regional media, guidance for engaging with the media, including interview tips, finding journalists, writing press releases, and more. There will be a chance to get into smaller groups to share your plans for Great Big Green Week so we can support you with developing your story for local media.
