Building Great Communities Conference & Participation Awards

This stimulating event is split into 2 parts:

1)   The daytime conference

Some of the areas we will cover include:

• How to use sports to promote community and social inclusion
• Can Container Homes, help build great communities by meeting local housing needs?
• How to engage and build communities of theme as well as place.

Bonus Speaker

Welsh Government are currently doing an extensive review of ‘Tenants at the Heart’. They have selected this event to launch the findings of this extensive Wales-wide research. Dr Bob Smith of the Regulatory Board for Wales will be launching the report and setting out the recommendations. Not to be missed for how Tenants voice should influence Board decision making going forward.  

If you are looking for inspiration and new ideas to take away, this daytime event is for you. You will be in the company of like-minded people and the potential is limitless.
