Jonathon Partridge 10 Years Ago Hi Stacy - What sort of feedback have you had to your social media output so far? Has it resulted in many suggestions for items or attendees at meetings? We have a new PI to measure the number of items that originate from external sources so we're looking for ways to encourage public engagement, would be interested to know if your effort has added value.

Stacy Cosham 10 Years Ago Hi Jon So far I posted to Streetlife that the Committee are preparing their questions for the Cabinet on the council budget. I asked them what they would want the Committee to ask and I got a handful of good finance questions come through. I also got a few 'moaning' posts which I responded to directing them to where accurate information exists on the Council's website. I'm pleased that I can also use it as a signposting tool to correct information, breaking down the myths. Over on twitter I have had less public interaction but a good few retweets. I am currently working through a conversation about the Council donating used laptops to a carer charity. Not strictly scrutiny but good public engagement. Its so new, at the moment I'm trying to just get active and aiming to get external influence over time. Planning on some crowd sourcing content leading up to when the Committee sets its next annual work programme. 0 Reply as... Cancel
