Tweet the torch through Northumberland

13 June 2012 ( Archived )

Northumberland County Council is to use social media to help keep residents informed about the torch’s journey through the county and is asking for help from the public.

 

The council is planning  to tweet the torch through Northumberland and would like anyone with a twitter account who is planning to watch the torch  to let everyone follow its progress  by tweeting a message of support as it passes you by.

 

You can also  send the county council  images of  the torch  or activities that are taking place along  route. The council  will try to include  as many as they can in their Olympic torch relay gallery.

 

All you have to do is add the Hashtag  ‘#NlandTorch’ to your message and the council will re-tweet it to all of its  followers on @EventsNE  http://twitter.com/EventsNE

 

You can also send your photos and messages of support via the council’s  Facebook page  http://www.facebook.com/northumberlandevents
