How well does your parish or town council understand the people and communities it serves? Effective community engagement is essential to understanding residents' priorities, listening to their concerns and making decisions that reflect local needs.
Parish and town councils are uniquely placed to build strong relationships with their communities, giving residents a voice in shaping the places where they live. But meaningful engagement takes more than simply asking for opinions. It means reaching different groups, creating opportunities for people to get involved and making sure their views help shape council decisions.
This event will explore how parish and town councils can strengthen connections with residents and make community engagement a central part of their work. You'll hear top tips, learn from councils with successful engagement strategies and share experiences and ideas with other attendees. You'll explore different approaches to reaching residents, encouraging participation and turning feedback into meaningful action.
Whether you're looking to develop your parish or town council's approach or build on existing good practice, you'll leave with fresh ideas and practical ways to make engagement more effective and inclusive.
