A ‘no commitment’ meeting

In a meeting I’d cover:

  • why the literature is highly cost effective and very reasonably priced (costing much less
    than other marketing agencies)
  • how the literature is produced (and how we involve parents in developing the literature…
    which is a learning opportunity for them and lends the lit ‘gravitas’ and makes it more ‘real’)

  • how other Centres have used it
  • what the literature is meant to do (how it can be used in a strategic way to communicate
    to parents, councillors, partners, service heads etc).
Stoneworks really seemed to care about our parents. Andrew took the time to make sure that every
parent featured in our studie reports was happy with the content...and worked at the parent’s
own speed. Parents also really enjoyed having their photos taken by a professional photographer!

Stoneworks produced a wide range of Parent Case Studies covering all Children’s Centres in Hillingdon,
and a Parent Welcome Booklet covering all the questions that parents would ask. They also produced a
Hillingdon Children’s Centres Achievement Report, and a booklet explaining what Children’s Centres are
in the borough. The fact that he has worked for so many Centres for so long really helps.
He has a lot of very good ideas and I’d recommend his services to any other Children’s Centre
or group of Children’s Centres.
