Writing text for a leaflet needn't be difficult. Follow our simple tips to make it effective and clear:
Keep it simple. People won't read a leaflet if it's too long or complicated. Try to use four or five short bullet points instead of paragraphs of text.
Be positive. Show how the wind farm will benefit the area. Don't just answer opponents' criticisms.
Don't use too much emotive language. Instead use understandable facts.
Give the reader something to do - a way to get involved. For example, ask them to write a letter to the planning officer or to attend a meeting.
Include contact details, so that people who want more info or want to get involved can do so.
