Briefing:2021 Calendar for Officers of the Co-operative Party to use From: John Boyle For attention of: Published: 28th January 2021 Last updated: 28th January 2021 Printed: 23rd December 2024 Other formats: Print Holding your AGM in good time, makes planning the rest of the year so much easier Predicting anything in the current situation is difficult. So disclaimer first. Every date suggested in this calendar is subject to change. But they are given in good faith on the basis of many years activities. Do consider a tweet, Facebook or Instagram before during or after any event Use the @coopparty and the party.coop/join logo’s and a relevant hash tag. The intention of this is to help promote the work of the Party and hopefully to make the work simple and less time consuming. Look at this year’s calendar; chat to your fellow officers about setting a calendar for the coming year. Review last year, were there dates or activities that you might have changed or done differently? Are there dates that must be maintained or should be changed, (do you hold a meeting on a day that one group of members can attend, but very few other members do?) Get dates in the calendar for this year now Rule Book, is very useful, you can find it on our website ……https://party.coop/members/rule-book/ Strongly recommend you visit https://party.coop/members/ there’s an awful lot of content and ideas for campaigns, activities and such. This briefing will be updated throughout the year. Action Points Give members dates earlyPrepare to plan for known events. Encourage ideas and activities Get the Buzz? Do all your Officers get the Buzz. Let us know if one or more of your officers do not. And let members know they can ask for the Buzz to be sent to them. We use the Buzz to tell you what’s going on, so you can share with members and interested parties about what’s going on. It will also tell you of dates of important events, meetings or campaigns. PS Use social media to promote Co-operative Party activity. The more tweets, the more it gets picked up. The more it gets picked up, the more it appears in search engines, reminders and suggested links.
