Cumbria CVS Local Forum - Tuesday 14 June

Tuesday 14 June 2011 12.30pm – 2pm at The Dock Museum, North Road, Barrow.

This is an invitation to all Third Sector groups active in South Lakes and Barrow. The Local Forum is important to anyone interested in finding out about local issues and working with other groups and organisations to find local solutions.

The Forum is a useful link with your Local Strategic Partnership and with Cumbria CVS. It will help keep you informed and ensure that your views are properly represented. It is your opportunity to let Cumbria CVS know how you feel about our services, and make suggestions of ways they could be working with you.

By Third Sector they mean voluntary and community, sport, faith, environmental and social enterprise groups and organisations.

Agenda Items:
Welcome
Jonathan Lee – Community Pages Northwest Evening Mail
Steve Robson – Inspiring Communities Pilot (Outcomes)

Community Champions!

NHS Cumbria, Cumbria CVS and Cumbria Local Involvement Network are working together to support and train Community Champion Volunteers in Cumbria.

What are Community Champions?

They are local people who care about the health of their community and of those around them. They are volunteers who work a few hours a week either on a one-to-one basis with individuals or with groups who want to improve their health – educating, encouraging, supporting and mentoring.

We are holding an information session on 27 April 2010 for you to find out more about Community Champions.

When & Where?

Tuesday 27th April at Hindpool Community Centre, Nelson St, Barrow

The session begins at 10 am and ends with lunch at 12:30 pm

Come along and find out more about how you can make a difference.

To book your place please contact Louise Blackburn at Cumbria CVS.
