Businesses are being offered free social media webinars.
The York & North Yorkshire Growth Hub have teamed up with York PR and marketing agency Intandem Communications to deliver three sessions.

Whether you are a total novice, looking to develop your skills or incorporate social media into other digital strategies, this series will have something for your business.”
The first webinar on mastering the basics is on Thursday 25 June, with creating great content the focus on Thursday 2 July and growing your audience on Thursday 9 July. All three sessions run from 12.15pm to 1pm.
