There are various ways to get your event to the wider public in
Bollington ...
- Happy Valley web site is available every day to promote your
events free of charge. Other than for spectacular major events,
such as the Festival, we don't normally list events on the home
page more than two weeks before their scheduled date. Anything
promoted on the home page also gets a listing on Twitter at @HV_Bollington
.
Just send your details in an email
to the Webmaster. If your group does not have a web site
you can have a page on the Happy Valley web site for free.
See what we do for the
Horticulture group. You can have something similar - all
you need to do is send me the information you would like to publish.
- 'What's
On' collated
and published by Andrea
Paterson, Bollington Town Council (BTC), at Bollington
Town Hall and published monthly on paper and as a PDF through
the BTC
web site with
links from the Happy Valley web site. To be included please
submit the full details of your event on paper to the Town
Hall or by
email by the last working day before the 24th of the month.
- BTC notice boards - there is a limited amount of space available
on the eight BTC notice boards located around the town. These are
updated each Wednesday and your promotional poster should be provided
to the Town Hall on A4 or A5 paper and preferably encapsulated
to protect it against damp.
- Bollington
Arts Centre notice
board - if your event is taking place at the Arts Centre then
you should provide a poster for the board located beside the
street entrance to the Arts Centre.
- 'Bollington
Live!' is published every four months. Send details
by email to Lily
Hardebeck, the Bollington Live! What's On collator. Remember
that there is a long lead time for this popular magazine - your
information for the February edition is required by the last Friday
in January covering the months of March, April, May and June; for
the June edition by the last Friday in May covering the months
of July, August, September and October; and for the October edition
by the last Friday in September covering the months of November,
December, January and February.
Looking to the future
During 2012 both the Happy Valley web site and the BTC web site
are going to be upgraded using modern techniques and technology.
It is planned to include a comprehensive What's On service, one that
can be updated by event organisers themselves! Watch out for announcements
in due course!
