There are many updates that go out every day, week and month to keep you as up to date as possible with what the Trust is up to and other things in the wider community.

We try to post daily on Facebook to give you the latest information, directing you to the website in most instances where the latest stories appear.  In April 34 stories were added to the website!

Weekly, we add the stories to the website, some weeks there is more information than others but there is always something happening!

On Thursdays we update each of the project pages of the website.  Sometimes it is very minimal information and other times it is big news, so it is worth having a check to keep up to date with what’s going on and if you have any questions you can contact us at any time.  Maybe a particular project interests you and you would like more information or would like to volunteer.  It really is up to you.

We are finishing the final amendments to the May newsletter and it will hopefully be available in the coming week so keep an eye out.  This newsletter is available online and a few copies will be sent out to be picked up at Foyers shop, the doctors surgery and The Wildside Centre.  We will also send an email to all of you on our mailing list so you can open it straight from your mobile!  Not sure if you are on our mailing list?  Then please email clo@sfctrust.org.uk and ask to be added.

We create the community magazine twice a year now, one in spring and one in autumn which gets delivered to your door so no one misses out.  This magazine is usually at least 44 pages full of everything the community has been up to over the previous 6 months and it takes all your contributions to make it happen so thank you!

The new CRM system has made emailing out to our members smoother. We are still fine tuning it but it helps us reach out to specific groups much quicker and more efficiently.

If you have any suggestions on how to improve our communications further (as it is always a working progress) then please email communications@sfctrust.org.uk so we can gather your feedback.
