Every three months the Greenwich Community Network organises community conferences. Each community conference is organised before the Greenwich Partnership Board meets. The conferences are held before the board meeting so that concerns and community opinions can be raised by the network representatives who sit on the board.
The topic of these conferences is determined by the network representatives. For the 2006/07 financial year the conferences will revolve around the themes of the Local Area Agreement. If you are not sure about the Local Area Agreement or what it is, you can find more information in the About Us section or by contacting Graham Verge on 020 8921 5038.
Refreshments are provided and the conferences are held at varying times and on different days to ensure everyone has the opportunity to attend.
