Scrosoppi Sorgsentrum

Good press coverage helps explain why it is important to raise money for The Scrosoppi Sorgsentrum's work and can be crucial in the battle to raise much-needed funds.

The key is that your story is newsworthy enough to be noticed by your local weekly and/or daily paper.

Here are some useful tips and ideas:

Send a letter to the Editor:
The letter pages of local and regional papers are always popular and, if printed, your letter will be an excellent means of attracting sponsorship and publicising The Scrosoppi Sorgsentrum's work. Local and regional papers are always interested in local news, so there is a good change that it will be printed. Once you know how much you have raised send a thank-you letter in the same way.

Call your local weekly or daily regional paper's sports or news desk:
If you are dressing up in a silly outfit, running with your family, if you are an older or younger runner, getting married or running three-legged (the list is endless) the paper is more likely to be interested and may want to photograph you. Tell them how long you hope to take to complete the run and how much you hope to raise. It is always a good idea to have noted the details down along with some brief information on The Scrosoppi Sorgsentrum before you phone, or you can always email any further details through afterwards.

Local or Regional Radio: Your local or regional radio may be interested in talking to you too!
