Everyone has something to say - about where they live, what they're experiencing, and what they want to see happen. Our Community Reporters’ programme gives people a platform to tell these stories online.
We work with individuals from all kinds of communities to give them a voice and build their confidence in the use of social media tools.
Reporters learn how to produce content with new social media such as blogs, podcasts, films and wikis, and use everything from mobile phones to video cameras and webcams. Stories are distributed through our online networks, meaning that those voices can be heard by anyone online.
Community reporters can be local active individuals or participants in our training programmes.
