DO YOU LIVE OR WORK WITH PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN INVERCLYDE?
ARE YOU INTERESTED IN COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT?
We are encouraging local people to take part in lively discussion sessions about the Scottish Government's proposed
Community Engagement and Renewal Bill.
CVS will be facilitating 3 events where local people and local voluntary and community organisations will be given the opportunity to respond to this consultation
These events will be held over 3 evenings:
11th, 12th & 13th September
from 6pm - 9pm
Notre Dame High School, Dunlop Street, Greenock, PA16 9BJ
The Consultation is in three parts:
11th Sept: Helping communities to own some of land and buildings in their area to develop local activities, services and community businesses
12th Sept: Making it easier for communities to take part and have their say in deciding about local budgets and services
13th Sept: Making the best use of unused or underused buildings and land for the benefit of the community
All welcome!
