BBC TV and the Media Trust’s Working in the Community season gets underway this 
month.
The series covers key aspects of working in the voluntary sector from communication
and management skills to diversity issues, team leadership and health and safety
matters.

The new series challenges the voluntary sector to improve its communication skills.
The Interview follows Soo Nevison from Multiple Choice, a drug rehabilitation charity
in Leeds, as she works to overcome her fear of interviews. Through intensive training
and with a tight deadline, Soo is set the challenge of doing a live TV interview.
What to say, how to say it and how to look are all part of the makeover.

Other skills covered in the Voluntary Matters 4 series are Fundraising, Writing 
a Press Release and Pitching for Sponsorship as individuals from voluntary organisations
are given their specific communications challenge.
