directories and often linked them to their proprietary products for

Any patches of ‘quiet’ time can be used to your group’s advantage. Think about your members who are around over the summer and would...

First The Sun launched an all out assault on Humberside Police for officers being photographed playing on dodgems at a fun fair. Then the same paper criticised Avon and Somerset Constabulary for an awareness raising campaign around modern slavery that involved officers painting their nails (highlighting the...

Thanks to Dan and Darren at Comms2point0 for helping to carry out a survey to find out just how good and bad intranets really are. Here are the findings...
