“A very useful and informative course for Councils using social media. I’m an older clerk and tend to use social media just to stay in touch with friends and relatives. Using social media for Council work is not the same; this course was good to prompt the different approach that’s required for that.”
Gail Denham, Wilsden Parish Council
