 “The social media event was a fantastic opportunity to hear about how other people have used social media and gave me loads of ideas that I can easily incorporate into making my life much easier!  It was also a great opportunity to meet many other people in similar positions and organisations and discuss their successes.” Sarah Raubusch – Community Fundraising Co-ordinator

The Willen Hospice video on the “Moo event”  was shown as an example of the use of video at the Click4Causes event. 586 views of the video had occurred in 27 days. After blogging  and tweeting about the event 2225 had viewed the video 7 days later. As of writing the views stand at 3226 views. This is power of combing social media platforms and linkage to blogging.
