Connect with citizenship event - South West
On 12 June 2007 an event entitled ‘Connect with citizenship’ took place in the South West. Further details about the event are available on the promotional flyer, leaflet and booking form that were designed for the event.
The aims of the events were to provide opportunities for citizenship staff from schools and colleges, youth workers, training providers and employees from other organisations doing citizenship work with young people to have an opportunity to network, obtain resources and make contact with organisations that can help facilitate citizenship work.
The event was an exhibition held in the conference room at the Bristol City Council House; 15 different organisations contributed to the event with stalls containing information and resources. Staff were on hand to discuss their citizenship work with delegates and to identify opportunities for collaborative working.
Contributors/Exhibitors at the event included:
A total of 57 people were involved in the event as contributors or delegates. Delegates’ feedback was generally quite positive. A short feedback session with contributors at the end of the event generated some useful information and contributors seemed happy with the number of new contacts they had made. See contributors’ feedback.
