MEDIA SUB-GROUP FEEDBACK

Nahro and Steve met with Viking Radio last week about having a myth busting campaign again. We want to challenge those hard to reach people. An idea is to use children’s voices to provoke people, possibly from B.M.E communities. Can people ignore children’s voices? Viking Radio is bringing back their ideas and Steve will try to gain funding for this from Hull City Council instead of using our core budget. He will report back at the next meeting.

The funding bid has been approved by the Council and we urgently need to produce a Licensing Application to use 28 days before. Please get all of your arrangements to Steve ASAP as these needs to go to the Police and the Council.

OTHER ITEMS

Can everyone think about what resources they need and costings for the small events? Please bring to the next meeting.

The Tenant Participation Team wants to have a stand on the day to raise
awareness of housing in Hull. Trestle tables are available.
