Last Friday, councils should have
received the electronic PR briefing packs from our YES campaign team and be in
the process of pulling together and submitting the information requested.
The pack is designed to help
brief referendum spokespeople and the communications team in each council with
campaign messaging and help councils to start planning their own communication
in the lead up to election day.
The local media campaign for a
YES vote is intended to be driven by local councils and is essential to
garnering awareness and support. It's the local projects and initiatives
that will resonate best within each community and it's up to local councils to
drive and create this awareness. We all know that the most effective
advocacy comes from people we can relate to - that's why it's not just the
Mayors and councillors who will give this campaign real impact but members of
each local community who benefit every day from the ongoing support of the
local council.
The campaign website www.thefactssayyes.com.au
is now live and Facebook and Twitter pages are also live and ready for councils
to connect with the YES campaign team.
Councils with queries in relation
to 'The Facts Say Yes' PR briefing pack should contact the campaign press
office: Email: pr@thefactssayyes.com.au
