Meeting in person and using Edventure’s learning by doing approach, you’ll form a team to develop communications ideas and plans before delivering them. Supported every step of the way, you’ll receive training from industry professionals on core communication skills and knowledge such as understanding your audience, storytelling, making engaging digital content, writing and speaking with impact and a broader understanding of the communications space in general. You’ll also develop your problem solving and team working skills.

Edventure courses are fun, empowering and all about doing. Leave with evidence of the knowledge and skills you have acquired, with a supportive community around you and feeling like you’ve found your voice.

In this course, your challenge will be set by Green and Healthy Frome, a unique partnership programme of Edventure Frome, Frome Medical Practice and Frome Town Council. This programme is creating positive change in Frome through focusing on the links between our environment and our well-being – on climate and health. After the course you will be able to apply your learning comms with a social and environmental purpose in any sector.
