Organise & run a stand

 

If you want to organise and run a stand yourself on behalf of the campaign, here’s some suggestions:

  • Practical: kit list: see below.

  • Visual: Please make sure the table/ gazebo or marquee looks attractive and represents the campaign well.
    Use laminated placards at eye level on a gazebo so people clearly see what the stand is promoting (A3 laminates can be used again and again, come rain or shine) Get creative!

  • Info & merchandise:
    Set up a table covered with a white cloth.
    Lay out leaflets, business cards , books for sale , badges and stickers with a ‘donations please’ sign and a donations jar on the table.
    Campaign t-shirts can be pegged on a jute string washing line in gazebos if you have any.


What you can do

  • Talk tools:
    A short intro talk, Slideshow & speakernotes, FAQs is great for you to refer to when answering questions.
    Make a note of any questions you cant answer and take an email address so that they campaign team can get back to them in response.
