Leaflets

Leaflets are usually designed to advise an audience, inform an audience or persuade an audience of the writer's point of view.

Audience

Audience

  • Leaflets are handed out everywhere.
  • A leaflet made by the government trying to make people aware of the dangers of smoking has a general audience.
  • A leaflet made by your local cat appreciation society is probably more focused on the specific audience of people who like cats (a lot).

Tips for writing leaflets

Tips for writing leaflets

  • Consider your use of images – do not draw on your paper but you can draw a box and state what the image would be.
