[Manchester Campaigns]

You are invited to take part in a free city-wide conference addressing
the impact of Manchester's voluntary sector on Tuesday 21st March, 10am
-
2:30pm at the Brittania Hotel, Manchester.

Some of the themed inputs being discussed will include:
Community priorities - what do you want to see on the agenda?
How do we REALLY feed into the strategy- or are we just recipients?
Enforcement Strategies- are enforcement policies creating the events?
VCS Contribution to the targets- how can we prove this?

Workshops:

1. Virtual Communities- Crime trends in relation to a transient
population
"How do you plan a strategy with a virtual population???"

2. Micro v Macro- Needs of smaller communities or city-wide focus?
"Should the strategy be specific to micro communities???"

3. Dispersal Orders - Alleviating hotspots or moving the problem?
"Do they REALLY work???"

"This Government is passionately committed to the work of the voluntary
sector. We believe that the voluntary and community sector organisations
have a crucial role to play to play in the reform of public services and
reinvigoration of civic life. We in Government cannot do this on our
own"
