Style • Keep the language you use simple, clear and jargon free, not technical or ambiguous
• Be clear and concise, where possible use bullet points, charts and tables
• Language should not be passive and represent that a partnership has mutual responsibilities and
benefits
• Use facts and figures where possible to validate your points. Ensure you can provide a reference for
these facts and figures.
• Where possible use real case studies, stories, examples and pictures to bring your organisations work
to life
• Plan to present for 30 minutes and then allow 30 minutes for questions. Where possible be brief to
encourage questions and stimulate discussion
