[Community Television] Free election workshops from the Community Media Association

[Michael Conn]

I'm writing to invite you and other people from your organisation to 
some special election workshops which will be held next week.

They're free and they've been put together by the CMA and the BBC with 
Ofcom and the Electoral Commission. The workshops are aimed at anyone 
who is involved in programmes for radio and television – staff and 
volunteers – it doesn't matter if they're experienced or not – to give 
them ideas and information about covering the election. They're also an 
opportunity to meet other community programme makers. The day will 
include a chance to try out different programme making scenarios. Even 
if you're not planning to cover the election this time, you might find 
it useful to take part.

The first one is in London next Monday 18th
The next is Manchester next Thursday 21st
The final one is in Inverness a week on Saturday 23rd April.

Tea, coffee and a snack lunch will be provided.

Further information, including booking forms and an agenda is available 
at www.commedia.org.uk/your_vote  Please complete and e mail a booking 
form by return to michael.conn at commedia.org.uk to reserve your place(s). 
Although they're free, the places are limited because of space, food etc.

We hope that you can come – the workshops promise to be both interesting 
and enjoyable.

Best Wishes
