Premier League Stadium Fund Grant Award Publicity

As you will see on the template, you just need to edit the parts in yellow to ensure that it's relevant to your organisation and funding received. Once this is done, email us for approval. After you've been given the thumbs up, you can forward on to local media. 

To compile a media list, all you need to do is search “local newspaper contacts in [insert county/city]” on your browser. This will return the Contact Us web pages of numerous media outlets. For example, you can see the results when searching “local media contacts in Hampshire” here. 

Collate the Newsdesk and Editor contact details for outlets in your area and then email the press release to these contacts.

We would also recommend taking some high resolution (i.e. good enough quality and size to be used for print media) photos of your site to send with the press release and then use on social media. Be sure to take a variety of shots capturing the facilities as they will help highlight the impact the investment is going to make.

Below is some recommended wording to use in your covering email when sending the press release out.
