SUMMARY:Brighter Futures Day Seminar & Have Heart Shop Project Launch

Focusing on the Have HeART Empty Shop project we will explore how we can build the confidence\, skills and employment prospects of young people through positive engagement with the arts and creative industries. \nSPEAKERSDave Adamson\, CREW: “The Power of Pop Up: How Meanwhile Use Can Help Revitalize Our High Streets’Karen Dusgate\, Merthyr Tydfil Housing Association Ltd: “Art and Regeneration: The Redhouse Story”David Shaw\, Droneboy Create: “How the Entrepreneurial Spirit Can Bring Back the Lost Kids” \n  \nThe creative industries is one of the UKs fastest growing sectors\, accounting for 1.68million jobs in 2012 and an increase in employment of 8.6% (a much higher rate than the UK economy as a whole 0.7%*) Yet amidst rapidly increasing youth unemployment there are few opportunities for young people to build skills and gain experiences that would help improve their employment prospects in this thriving sector. \nThe Brighter Futures Programme aims to directly challenge this through a range of innovative youth led activities which aim to raise the self-esteem\, confidence\, aspiration and transferable skill base of young people experiencing disadvantage through positive engagement with the arts and creative industries. \nThe Brighter Futures flagship project is the Have HeART Empty Shop Project. This summer\, South Wales based social enterprise Have HeART will transform an empty shop into a creative hub and retail space that aims to revolutionize the way young people think about and use charity shops.  The shop will provide a space for independent artists\, makers and brands to showcase and sell their work while providing inspirational learning and voluntary opportunities for unemployed young people\, and raising money for local youth arts/creative projects- a WIN WIN WIN situation. We will be officially launching the project at this event and it is a great opportunity to find out how you or your organization can get involved. \nIf you work with young people and/or disadvantaged communities\, are studying/employed/represent the creative industries or believe in the importance of supporting the creative and entrepreneurial potential of young people\, please come along to this exciting event and help explore ways we can empower a generation of caring and creative young change makers. \nSpace available for information and/or craft stalls: if you are an arts or youth based community group/organization/project or an independent artist/maker and would like a FREE information or market stall this a great opportunity to showcase your work.

SUMMARY:Big Lottery Fund – have your say on its future
DESCRIPTION:Webinar \nThe Big Lottery Fund in Wales needs your views on its future funding strategy.  \nOutside Welsh Government\, the Big Lottery Fund in Wales is the sector’s biggest funder. Until the end of July\, the Fund is seeking input from the sector about its funding strategy between 2015 and 2021.   \nSo WCVA is hosting a lunchtime webinar – an online meeting – with BIG where you can find out more and have your say.  \nIn Wales\, the Fund is thinking about specific areas that it could invest in alongside its demand led funding streams. They are:  \n – Future proofing the third sector  – Financial resilience  – Environment with a focus on building social capital  – Rural poverty  – Employment as a route out of poverty  – Supporting disabled people and those with life limiting illness  \nWhat are you views on these six areas? What actions could be taken to address each theme?  \nAre they the right areas to focus on\, or do you think that the Fund should be considering other areas and themes?  \nIf you’ve got thoughts on this\, you need to sign up to attend the webinar.  \nSign up today to make sure your views are heard.  \nRegister your interest by completing the booking form and returning it to eventsadmin@wcva.org.uk

SUMMARY:Clinks masterclass on changes to the disclosure of criminal convictions
DESCRIPTION:The Rehabilitation of Offenders Act has changed for the first time in 40 years! If you provide information\, advice\, or employment-focused support to people with convictions\, or handle criminal records\, do you know how these changes impact on people with convictions? \nThis masterclass\, run by Unlock in partnership with Clinks\, will provide you with a greater understanding of how the criminal record and disclosure systems operate (and how they have changed) and the implications this has for people with convictions when seeking employment\, volunteer work and more broadly in moving on positively in their lives. This masterclass will cover: \n – Changes to the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974\, which came into force on the 10th March 2014\, and how this effects what people with convictions have to disclose – How to work out whether convictions are ‘spent’ under the amendments to the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 – If and how the new filtering process by the Disclosure and Barring Service changes what will be disclosed on a criminal record check – The different types of criminal record checks\, and how to make sure the right check is being done by an employer   \n“The disclosure training is engaging and comprehensive. Some of the legal aspects are quite complex and I would recommend anyone who works in this field to think about completing the Unlock training to ensure they are fully up to date”  Carrie Peters\, Director of REACH \nPrevious sessions have sold out\, so make sure you book early. \nFind out more and book your place here.

SUMMARY:E-Safety With the Under 8s
DESCRIPTION:A half-day Children in Wales course \nChildren are increasingly becoming regular users of internet connected devices from a very young age. A study ‘Children and parents: Media use and attitudes in the nations’\, published by Ofcom in 2012 reported that in each of the four nations over 80% of children aged 5-15 use the internet at home. Parents of children aged 5 -15 in Wales are more likely than the UK average to have concerns about content on the internet (25% vs. 17%) and smartphone ownership among 5 -15s has increased in all four nations since 2011.  Adults who care for and support young children\, and their parents often express a lack of confidence in using and managing access to the technology that the children take for granted. \n  \nThis course is aimed at anyone working with children under 8 years old and who wants to ensure that any access to new technology (computers\, tablets\, games consoles\, smart phones etc) is both safe and appropriate. It is particularly suitable for adults who are not IT specialists. \n  \nAims \nFor adults who work directly with younger children or with their parents to better understand the implications of internet use in this age group.  To explore concerns\, and to develop some practical methods to support safe use of a range of devises that are increasing becoming an integral part of the daily lives of young children. \n  \nLearning outcomes \nParticipants will: \n – Understand the ways in which children are able to access the internet – Consider both the risks and benefits of younger children using internet connected devices  – Understand the benefits and shortcomings of using parental controls on a variety of devices – Devised a set of ground rules for safe use of the internet and computers – Be able to support children to better protect themselves online – Identify warning signs to be aware of and how to report concerns  \nFind out more and book your place via the Children in Wales website.
