Our first Community Reporter catch-up of the year is set to take place in March and you’re invited!

We host two Community Reporter catch-ups each year and they’re a great way to meet other Community Reporters and learn about what people have been up to in the wider movement. Whether you’ve attended before, or are completely new to Community Reporting – join us for a catch up and a natter.

When is it happening? Monday 27th March 2023 from 12:00pm – 1:00pm

Who else will be there? You’ll meet people from the PVM team, Community Reporters from the wider movement and people who are curious to find out more!

We’ll see you soon!

Last month the team at PVM were joined by members of the Community Reporters Network for our first catch-up of the year!

We run two 1hr online meet-ups a year, which provide space for members to keep up-to-date with what is happening within the Community Reporters Network. This time around we provided an update on actions from the last meeting – the main focus being the development of a community reporting project themed around anti-racism. At this moment in time the funding application is underway, the outcome of which we will know by June, if all goes to plan delivery will commence in summer 2022!

We also discussed PVM’s commitment to anti-racism and our actions towards becoming actively anti-racist. You can find out more about this in our blog post here.

We then provided some information on the upcoming Community Reporters Conference 2022, which is set to take place on Thursday the 7th of July 2022. This year we return to in-person delivery at the Lowry in Salford Quays and will be focusing on the theme of power. There are three financially supported places available up to the value of £150.00 to cover the cost of taking part in the day. You can find out more through the eventbrite page, which will be going live this Friday, where you’ll be able to sign up for your free ticket, so keep an eye out on socials for the link!

It was great to catch up with familiar faces and introduce some new ones to the Community Reporters Network – we look forward to welcoming you to the conference in July and the 2nd ICR catch-up later in the year.
