This is a 25-30 page document with all the information needed for your Unit 1 controlled assessment. It covers every AC and includes a variety of case studies and campaigns. It also includes links to websites that will help create your own campaign for AC3.1-3.3. All notes are bullet pointed to make it easier to read and analyse while also making them permitted for the exam. Note - you may want to add information of your own, however, there is enough information here to get you an A.
