Consulting the community

Whether you are new to engagement or just need to learn new tips and techniques, we will build a course that is right for you.

From working with experienced community workers to training residents to embark on peer consultation, there will be something to suit everyone.

 

It is essential that councils and social landlords  involve their local communities more, and it is harder than ever with deducted budgets and less staff..

We want residents to be genuinely involved in making local decisions – to be equal partners with those organisations that serve them.

 

All this requires one thing. You really have to know exactly how to involve residents. 

 

Sounds simple but how do you do it? (Always assuming your residents want to be involved in the first place).

 

More Communities gives you proven ways of involving residents that bring real benefits.

 

Together we will take a realistic, frank look at why you should work with the community and how you can build a good working relationship with them.

 

Topics include:

 

  • Where  do you start?
  • Where do you find residents to involve?
  • How do you keep the whole thing going – give it real momentum?
  • How do you involve different residents, not just the usual suspects?
  • Simple ways to consult all ages and abilities – and how do you mix people of different ages and cultures?
  • Getting residents to tell you about their concerns and findings
  • How to get people to attend your events and activities
  • How to help residents groups get real results
  • What are the best methods of involvement and consultation?
  • How to understand the needs of residents
  • How to build true partnerships with other agencies and residents
  • Simple ways to achieve good for your residents
