Your part in the Big Society. Courses running this month are focused on
communities, volunteers and advocacy - places are running out fast so sign
up on-line today.
The Big Society is the government's vision for active and empowered
communities where local people are more involved in:
o Social action;
o Planning & decision making;
o Shaping their communities.
Museums, libraries and archives are at the fore-front of this work but we
could all do with more support to manage this agenda as effectively as
possible. The following courses are tailored to provide just this kind of
guidance - so have a look on-line or call us to find out more.
