Do you want to communicate more effectively?

“Coverage of social work in the media is often negative, so when we were setting up Social Work England as the new regulator of over 100,000 social workers in England, we knew we had to be prepared for scrutiny from the local and national press. We wanted to identify both the risks and the opportunities for our reputation and make sure our communications strategy had a robust media management element. We brought Kate in through a competitive tender process and her expertise and experience helped us to unpick the questions and scenarios we could face and consider the public space we wanted to occupy. This was backed up with a thorough hands-on session that allowed us to put our key messages into practice and left us feeling confident that we could work positively with the media in any scenario, for the benefit of the organisation and the social work sector.”

Kate delivered an excellent training package in a fun, effective and efficient manner. The training provided key members of staff at the trust with vital knowledge of how the media works, plus the confidence and skills required to work effectively with the media.
