Event: 24 May 2023: SCDC Webinar on how best to secure strong community engagement:

At some point, your Community Council may become involved in something ‘big’ – community regeneration, placemaking, asset transfers, participatory budgeting, local health and social care support – and dealing with a number of counterparties.

In that event, two issues stand to be addressed at the outset:

1. You are going to be ‘fully engaged’, with local residents and businesses and with other bodies and agencies, both public and private;

2. Your ‘project’ is going to need very careful ‘management’.

SCDC offers good-practice principles to follow; a core checklist and some training opportunities.
