Attracting New Members
How to tell people about your WI? These days there are many methods of communication, and many are very good at telling people who we are and what we do.
Posters and notices are good, but there are other ways too. Have you got a public Facebook page? Do you post regularly on your local community Facebook group? And what about X/Twitter, Instagram and other social media apps? These effective tools can be used to advertise and help people find out what is going on in their community.
You may have a member in your WI who is able to help you set up and manage these tools to help promote all the lovely things you do in your WI. If you require help, Federation has an excellent Digital Team available to you, so please ask and you can start your journey into this new world and hopefully you will have new members coming along to your WI.
Essex Federation and National Federation have created new resources to help you advertise for a recruit new members to your WI.
