Talk About Local

talk about local is a project to give people in their communities a powerful online voice.  We help people communicate and campaign more effectively using the web to influence events in the places in which they live, work or play.

I work here with:

  • William Perrin (founder)
  • Nicky Getgood
  • Clare White

Using our social media skills, investment from Channel4 & Screen WM and support from UK online centres we provide training and support to local communities across the UK to help them build websites and get a powerful on-line voice. Whether the community need to start an action campaign to deal with a local issue or they just want a community site to help them communicate we can help.

If you want to investigate ways that talk about local can work with your organisation or your community please use the contact details HERE
