Friday 22nd January 2010, 9:15am – 12:30pm at Banqueting Suite, Civic Hall
An urgent message from David Smith, Director, Leeds Voice…
“I want to urge you and your colleagues to clear your diaries and make the debate about the long term future of Leeds the top priority for the morning of Friday 22nd January in the Civic Hall.
The Council and its partners are working together through the Leeds Initiative to develop the new sustainable community strategy for Leeds. Better known here as the Vision for Leeds, this is now a statutory requirement So there is a lot at stake for the future of the city in these discussions and as a sector we need to make sure our voice is heard, both in the interests of a thriving third sector, and to make sure that the voices of diverse and often marginalised communities are heard in the debate.
This is also the first event for everyone in the sector organised by the Third Sector Leeds Leadership Group. Come and find out more about this exciting development to give the sector more influence in partnership discussions in Leeds.
If you can only attend one conference this Spring, make it this one!”
Please make sure you have booked your place at this event and please circulate this email to as many of your third sector colleagues as possible and encourage them to attend the event.
Bookings are being handled by Leeds Accommodation Forum: please contact Lisa on 0113 244 4221
