How to talk about your funding on social media

Social media is a good way to share your funding news and show the work you’re doing. You can use social media platforms like:

  • Bluesky
  • Facebook
  • Instagram
  • LinkedIn

To set up a social media account, you just need an email address and a password. You should choose someone to manage your social media accounts, so you can post information regularly and reply to comments.

Posting about your funding on social media

You should use the hashtag #NationalLottery in posts about your funding. This acknowledges the support National Lottery players give to projects.
