Fun Farm & LaserStorm

In July 2009 I started working for Fun Farm. I was asked to take on the online marketing and promotion side of business and also start designing their leaflets and print documents in house. I also work with the Director of the company and the Marketing Assistant to organise the promotions of all three Fun Farm sites located in Lincolnshire.
I design all the adverts, banners, leaflets, website updates and anything else that you may see on site!
When I arrived at the company, they already had a good Facebook presence, but now I’ve worked with them to make the most of what they’ve got. They now have four Facebook Pages, with a couple of them having over 300 fans within the first month.

Tulip Radio

Tulip Radio is the official community radio station for South Lincolnshire.
I've been working with the station since May 2005 and have found it a very valuable experience. I worked behind the scenes in helping to set up the broadcast equipment in the lead up to the full time launch in June 2009. I have also been a technician during outside broadcasts around the local area and have presented regular shows for several years. I also started the Tulip Radio Facebook Page and Twitter account.
I currently present the Weekend Warmup on Friday evenings from 6-8pm and Saturday Morning Breakfast from 8-11am.

Bates Environmental Ltd.

Based in Donington, South Lincolnshire, Bates Environmental Ltd. advertised for a website assistant.
They asked me to update their four websites; improve their ecommerce website's products and userbility and update the content and images used on their other websites.
This is a short term project but will provide a vital part in attracting new customers.

KingsGate Community Church

Originally starting out as a leader in the Powerpack Children's Team, in December 2006 I joined the production team. I now help to serve once a month at this large church, where hundreds of children and youth learn about the Christian faith. At Easter and Christmas I also assist with the guest services which are themed and extra production elements are required, such as additional PA in other rooms. It is a pleasure to serve these children and enhance their understanding of God through media.

Grapevine FM

The annual Grapevine Celebrations take place at the Lincolnshire Showground in Lincoln during August Bank Holiday weekend, with over 50,000 guests going through the gates over the event.
In June 2010 I was invited to join Grapevine FM, the on-site radio station for the annual event. With a look to change the style of the station and improve upon previous broadcasts, I created a Facebook Page, Twitter account and designed a website for the station to promote the broadcast off-site and to a wider audience.
I will also be co-presenting a show between 5pm and 7pm each day. The 2010 broadcast is from Friday 27th to Tuesday 31st August.

KingsStock Festival

19th June 2010 saw the first ever KingStock Festival. The organiser and founder of the festival was James Stevens, a member of KingsGate Community Church, and his vision was to launch a Chrisitan based, grass-roots festival in Cambridgeshire. With three stages and loads of varied talent, it was a great start.
I was approached to compere the event and then went on to create an online presence with a website and Twitter account. A hashtag for the event as also used to pool together views of festival goers. I also set up a live stream of the festival so others that were unable to physically attend were able to watch online.
The 2011 event has already been penciled in for early September.
