Event Organiser

This is likely to be an organisation. For example: a school PTA or charity name rather than an individual.

Organiser Web Address

If you have your own website, this is where you can include a link that goes directly to the relevant page. This will prevent viewers from having to browsethrough many pages before they find the information they need. For example:
www.mywebsite.co.uk/events

Event Description

The most important first step in getting interest in your event is to create an informative and intersting decription which conveys your enthusiasm and explains why people should come along and get involved.

If you’re not the best writer in the world, there’s no harm in asking a friend to do this bit for you. In any case, it helps to have someone check over your draft before it’s published. It’s surprisingly easy to overlook bad spelling or grammar, which looks unprofessional.
