Defining community engagement:"Developing and sustaining a working relationship between one or more public body and one or more community group, to help them both to understand and act on the needs or issues that the community experiences" (Scottish National Standards for Community Engagement) |
These are all critical initiatives that can contribute to the improvement of community engagement and will be items that dominate our development work over the coming year.
