I found it quite challenging to hand leaflets directly to people as you have to have an air of confidence to assure people it is worth listening to you. We tried to stand near the entrances of the Regent Shopping centre and the Beechwood Shopping centre as we knew there would be a steady flow of people. After some practice I managed to hand out a good amount of leaflets.

As well as handing them to people directly we approached shops and gave them some to put in windows or by the counters for people to take. We approached local newspaper sellers so they could have one in their papers to increase circulation and went to the Town Hall where there was a Record Fair and handed them out there as well as adding them to the stands advertising local events. I feel we managed to widely spread the news about the festival using a variety of methods in a few short hours and this should hopefully increase attendance on the day itself.
I have also spread the leaflets around campus especially studios of Art and Design courses as I feel these places provide an ideal audience for the Festival. Our next event is a group photo shoot on Thursday 29th which will help us to become a greater part of the team in preparation for the day itself.
