Twitter is THE fastest growing social network – if you’re not on Twitter and Facebook yet, you’re missing out and could be losing potential business to your competitors.

If you’ve never used Twitter before and are thinking of trying it out, Contrast Creative run a series of hands-on workshops where we’ll introduce you and your team to some powerful techniques that will get the most from these networks and ultimately drive sales.

Contrast Creative recently contributed a series of images to an exhibition called ‘Hearing Unheard Voices’. The photographs were created in conjunction with Liverpool’s YWCA and show the prejudice that young girls experience when falling pregnant.

The exhibition runs from 13th March to 25th April 2010 at The Public, West Bromich.

A thought provoking set of installations by young people from around the UK and Sandwell. Designed to coincide with UKYouth’s national initiative of the same name to train young people in the skills to campaign for their rights, especially young refugees, carers, homeless and those from other sections of society who do not normally have their voices heard.

The images have so far been used on the Blackburn College website and will be used across prospectuses and general marketing material for the college.
