2. Recruitment ideas

Knowing what you want to achieve and having some ideas about who you'd like to recruit, now is the time to think about and plan your recruitment event(s). What you do will depend on how many recruits you wish to attract over what time period:

• A low-level steady flow of new recruits
• An injection of new recruits or to build a band from scratch
• A large scale recruitment project

This chapter will conclude with a series of stories from teachers and ringers, showcasing different successful recruitment activities.
