Posting content on our social media channels (Facebook, X and LinkedIn).
Helping create a network of relationships through likes, shares and reposts and where appropriate driving traffic to the LightAware website.
Creating graphics to illustrate key issues and themes.
Contributing to our social media strategy and engagement.
