Consultation Event: Town Centres & Community Development and Engagement
Working jointly with Scottish Community Development Centre (SCDC), we are delivering a scoping exercise to unpick a number of issues such as: what role do local partnerships see communities playing in local town partnerships; what kind of "communities" are town/town centre partnerships serving; are communities already involved in some partnerships - if so, who is it; if not, what are the barriers/challenges in getting them involved?; are there capacity issues for both communities & local partnerships, that can be supported; if so, what type of support is needed and how best could that be resourced/provided? If we find we have a clear agenda and real interest in pursuing specific issues further we will jointly seek to address this in a practical approach.
