Background

Croydon Supplementary Education Project (CSEP) is a charity and social enterprise based in Croydon, a borough in South London.  Croydon has a very mixed population and one of the highest proportions of young people across the 33 London Boroughs.

CSEP has been running for over 30 years and provides a range of services.  Its flagship Saturday School works to develop competence and excellence in the core subjects of the National Curriculum (English, Maths and Science).  CSEP provides help and support to young people in terms of study skills, revision techniques, help with mainstream school topics and projects. Around 100 children from year one to year eleven attend each Saturday for two hour classes taught by qualified teachers and supported by teaching assistants and volunteers.

The Task

The charity has two main objectives for Direct and Digital Marketing:

1. It must continue to attract families to Saturday school in order to maintain and build income - to date this has largely been done by word of mouth and some leafleting.  Until recently CSEP has had a website which had become very out of date - this is in the process of being redeveloped by a volunteer.  The charity has a Facebook page and Twitter account but these have not been updated for some time.  Direct channels are important but social media also offers potential for the charity since it has little money for marketing but this needs developing.

2. Part of CSEP’s income is generated during the week by letting out rooms in its building for education and training purposes (this purpose is a restriction in the lease) - the charity would like to raise awareness and attract more weekday users who are typically local companies, government departments who need extra space and other education or training based charities
