Join us for the second Salford Social Media Surgery, held at the world-famous Salford Lads' & Girls' Club.
A social media surgery is an informal event where "patients" get to spend one-to-one time with "surgeons", looking at how social media can benefit their community organisation.
Need Help? Want to know how twitter can help you campaign? How can Facebook help you connect? Or maybe you just need a basic starter? Please come along and join us....
Can Help? Can you spend an hour or two with a cup of tea and some local community projects, helping explain and show some of the ways social media could work for them? Please join the surgery...
Smiths Fan? You can also visit the Smiths' Room, and have your picture taken to add to it!
How It Works The Surgery runs for two hours. We try to match those that need help with those that can help - so please try and join us from 4.30pm so we can get the right people together. We've changed the start time to enable people to beat the rush hour traffic - but please let us know if you think it might not be possible...

Manchester Net Squared (#mcrn2) brings together social changemakers and web innovators to network, socialise and share ideas.
It's about how nonprofits and social benefit organisations can use the web for social change.
We organise two things:
- Net Tuesdays are free monthly gatherings that focus on a use of technology for social change. These are held at the MadLab in central Manchester and generally involve someone giving a talk or demo, plus some discussion and learning.
- Social Media Surgeries are free monthly events for those in need of hands-on advice and tips. People come along to help give advice to local charities and community projects. We hold this at the world-famous Salford Lads's Club.
Whether you work for a charity or non-proft, within the digital sector, or both - mcrn2 is here to help bring together like-minds.
Alongside Manchester Net Squared, there are over 80 groups across the world.
Net Squared is an facilitated by TechSoup Global, a nonprofit that helps other nonprofits and public libraries get the technology resources they need to operate at their full potential.
