This page is a temporary home for examples of good PR practice kindly shared in 2016 when the Central Council's PR Committee asked affiliated societies for their suggestions. The intention is that - when time allows - this information will be moved to a home on the CCCBR website. Guild Ringing Master's blog (Suffolk Guild - the Suffolk Guild PRO writes: 'Our daily blog by Richard Munnings who started in 2007 when he was
elected Ringing Master to try and shed some light on what a Guild
Ringing Master actually does and carried it on when he finish his term
as ringing master. I think it's excellent as even the president of the
CC only manages once a month! So to post every day for nearly nine years
and to make every one of them an entertaining & informative read
should be celebrated.') Guild Twitter feed (Suffolk Guild - their PRO writes'I'm also proud of our Guild Twitter Account which I started back in Nov
2013. We now have 180 followers & over 1400 tweets. I use a RSS Feed
from BellBoard to tweet all the recorded performance in Suffolk and
more importantly to engage with members of public & the local media.
I'm particularly pleased when someone tweets how nice it is to hear the
bells ringing etc and I'm able to tell them what was being rung, by
who, and link them to either our Guild website or bellringing.org
for them to find out more about ringing. One instance stands out for
me, when a resident of a village tweeted that the bells had been rung
both times when he brought home his children after being born about a
year apart. This was at a tower that was very rarely rung at making it
even more of a coincidence!') Display material and a flyer (Derby DA) Letter to a new incumbent (Peterborough DG) Letter to an estate agent marketing a property near a bell tower (Peterborough DG) The attached files (below) are also examples of what can be done. Again, when time allows, the links will be updated to make sure all the names are meaningful to the casual viewer |
