Coming together: environment matters | Influencing equalities at a local level – a WCVA event

Our Chief Officer Sheila Hendrickson-Brown will be chairing this event. 
  Coming together: environment mattersA look at community-led environmental regeneration. Litter, graffiti and vandalism can have a major impact on community and personal well-being. New research from the Carnegie UK Trust highlights the benefits of a community-led approach to dealing with these problems, which also bring significant benefits to the local residents. This event will share the research and showcase local projects which have achieved success. Influencing equalities at a local levelYou’ll look at the new public sector equalities duties, in particular the impact on local service delivery. The Equalities and Human Rights Commission will provide an interactive session outlining the duties and exploring how organisations can engage with them to influence change.
