Small Charities in the Spotlight!

This week, events are taking place all over the UK to mark Small Charities Week - an annual celebration aimed at supporting and raising the profile of small charities across the country. Yes, that's right, this week is all about charities getting their voice heard - and so we didn't want to miss out either!

Brought to us by the Foundation for Social Improvement (The FSI), Small Charity Week is a brilliant opportunity for local charities and community groups to get active online, learn new ways of working, and hold events to celebrate their own achievements.

As we often say, it only takes a bit of time and effort to get your name out there in your community. You can have a go yourself... or ask us to help out! Here's a few ideas...
​
  • Why not tell the papers? - Have an event coming up? Let your local newspapers know in advance. Who knows, they might be looking for upcoming charity events... or might want to know how the day went! There's no harm in trying.
  • Be coherent - You're much more likely to be trusted and remembered if you always come across the same way. That is, the same logo and colour scheme should show up wherever you appear - whether that be your website, your social media, your posters or a stall at the village fête.
  • Off to the printers! - You rarely see a village hall, a school or a library without a noticeboard. Are your posters up there? Make sure they're colourful, neat and right where your supporters are! If you're worried about printing costs, your local voluntary council might have some discounts for you.
  • Time to go digital! - Want to offer support to people, raise funds or find volunteers? A website and a good presence of Facebook or Twitter is essential for charities today. Don't be afraid, you can go at your own pace - and if you're ever lost, we're here to help.

Sounds nice? Let us know and we'll be happy to give you some more advice! After all, this is what we're all about.

Have a lovely Small Charity Week,
The PReflect Team
