People's Voice Media
Our vision is to connect communities through the use of social media to support civil society and improve governance.
We are a not for profit community development organisation that supports communities to have a voice. We empower individuals and groups to tell their own stories and develop their own solutions. We work to increase the confidence of individuals, support learners to progress onto further education and training or employment and develop dialogue between communities and agencies to improve communities and public services.
People’s Voice Media:
- Run a ground breaking certified Community Reporters programme. Reporters are from the local community and have the skills to communicate what’s going on where they live and to tell their experiences and stories.
- Set up, run and support Social Media Centres, which are based in communities and provide drop in facilities, a social space for peer support,informal and formal training programmes and act as a local communication hub.
- Maintain a People’s Voice Media distribution network for community news and information including the MyManchester network of websites.
- Innovate and experiment with new ways of using social media to empower communities, using the latest, digital communication technologies. For us it’s about giving local people tools they can use rather than complicated gadgets that break.
