Community Reporter Programme

Everyone has something to say about where they live, what they're experiencing, and what they want to see happen.

Our Community Reporter Programme gives people a platform to have a voice and challenge perceptions about their communities and the opportunity to describe their own reality.

The main features of the programme include:

• A flexible learner-centred training programme leading to self-managed groups supporting on-going engagement
• Using co-production techniques as a way of giving voice to communities, creating "good news" stories and supporting peer to peer learning
• A range of 'soft skills' such as improved communication, confidence and interview skills
• Focus on Best Practice elements, including good understanding of Editorial Guidelines, consent and copyright
• Teaching core social media skills such as photography, podcasting and film making using 'technology in the pocket' devices.
• Content distribution through the communityreporter.co.uk website and other social networks
• Accrediting skills gained through our Community Reporter badge scheme
• Either a 12 day programme or 'lighter' module based programme
