Resources & Guidance

A picture tells a thousand words and research shows social media posts with images are seen by more people than those without, so it’s important that every new update on your Facebook page or Twitter account has an image with it. But it can be hard sometimes to find suitable images. Resource from the Church of England.

Visual storytelling is incredibly important on social media, as people process images 60,000 times faster than words. Therefore it’s crucial that you take the best photos you can and make the most out of what you have.

If you have an event at your church you want to advertise, whether it’s a service, youth club, course or social, it’s important that the promotional materials are eye catching and engaging. Resource from Church of England.

Copyright law is designed to protect the rights of creators of artistic, literary, musical and dramatic works of all kinds from having their work exploited or misused. As such it protects their rights to charge for the work and time they have put in to their creations, and also their moral rights to control how their work is used by others.
Copyright law applies to all manner of materials and applies not just to printed publishing, but to digital publishing as well, including photographic images and digital graphic art work.
