"We have made steady progress with the Social Media Networks so we now understand what we need to do reasonably well. Staff have been on training courses and we have developed our in house skills. We now know that it is best to keep putting in a regular input in to the Social media Sites and that we have to maintain this continually if it is going to be aof any use. We have linked well with our national Wildlife Trusts and are one of about 12 Trusts which are improving our coverage and sustaining this. Staff have really improved their skills dramatically and are very keen to progress this amongst their other duties in media and marketing and they are now linking well with all the Centre managers and several of the Reserves staff who can give us good stories to update the sites. We are by no means doing everything we want to do at present but I think that we now have to gradually grow it from inside the organization so, thanks to you, you have encouraged the Trust to take this step forward. I think that now we have a firm base we are able to take it forward through the Trust staff and several volunteers who are also keen to bring their power to bear. Thank you for your enthusiasm at the start which has got us underway.
