1. Is this worth trying here?

What we hope will change: Runs a planned multi-platform sequence of short stories that connects one community theme to verified local action and monitored response routes.

What is happening in our club or community now?What is the smallest useful version we could try? What will we leave out?

Step	What we will do	Who could lead it
1	Design the campaign arc and assign each post a unique job in moving the audience from awareness to action.	Social Campaign Lead
2	Prepare platform-appropriate copy and visuals from verified source stories rather than inventing new claims.	Content Producer
3	Complete fact, rights, accessibility, brand, link and safeguarding checks for the scheduled assets.	Release Reviewer
4	Publish at the approved cadence and respond to genuine questions without arguing with abuse or misinformation.	Community Manager
5	Route accepted actions, document incidents and compare useful engagement across formats and platforms.	Follow-Up Analyst

3. Checks before we start

Things our club needs to check
Question	What it means for us	Who will check	Done?
Use multi-factor account security, current administrator access and a tested route for impersonation or account compromise.
Obtain permission appropriate to every platform and paid or organic use; do not expose location or identity through metadata.
High — public comments, direct messages, account security and rapid content reuse require active daily ownership.
