New CIPR Sports Network launches
The Chartered Institute of Public Relations (CIPR) has launched a new CIPR Sports Network, open to all members with an interest in sport and fitness.
The Network will provide a forum for debate and best practice in sports communications, discussing the hot sports topics of the day and how they impact the wider social landscape. Founded by David Alexander Found. Chart. PR, Dip CIPR MCIPR, the group aims to stage events with high-profile speakers including industry leaders, national journalists. and sports personalities.
The Network is looking for committee members from anyone with an interest in sport and fitness communications. To apply please email any relevant information.
You can follow the CIPR Sports Network on Twitter and LinkedIn.
We have seen the power and impact that sport can have all over the world and across communities. The good it can do and the ability to touch millions of people means those within and around sport have a responsibility to ensure their work is done to the highest professional and ethical standards. Public relations has a huge part to play and our hope is that this new Network will bring together interested and passionate individuals who can help us share experiences, practices, and learnings to the CIPR community through events and networking.
We're looking forward to being part of the CIPR community and adding to the fantastic offer that comes with membership.
