Brighton & Hove Music & Arts – communications strategy

“Anita did great work with our leadership team, really listening to our initial thoughts, progressing the thinking, and then developing a helpful communications strategy with tangible outcomes. This has built on the work she had already carried out, working with our teams on digital marketing, and communications work for Our Future City”.

About

Brighton and Hove Music and Arts is the music service for Brighton & Hove, and the lead partner in the local music education hub (now called Create Music). It provides high quality and inclusive music and arts opportunities for young people across the city, and brings together the leading organisations for music in the city and beyond. The team were looking for support with a communications strategy and plan, ahead of the service’s transfer from the local council to Brighton Dome and Brighton Festival.

How I helped

The work involved background research, workshops with staff, and writing up a short communications strategy and plan which is now being used as the foundation for BHMA’s communications.
