Now is your chance to get involved in a Plugging the Leaks workshop organised by PLANED under their Leader+ project, which encourages local people to look at their local area economy and come up with ideas for making things better.
The Plugging the Leaks workshop is very participative, which means that everyone will have a part to play. It is about as many people as possible getting involved whether as a resident, community representative, or a local business person, everyone has a view, and those views will make a difference. It is NOT a question of consultants coming in and telling you what you should or should not be doing, writing a strategy and leaving you to get on with it. Don't worry, you will not need expert knowledge of economics, just enthusiasm, an open mind and a willingness to share ideas.
Plugging the Leaks is the start of a process that will eventually result in establishing an Enterprise Group for the area, with its own Entrepreneurship Action Plan setting out the steps that local people want to take to improve the local economy. This builds on what has already been achieved by local communities. It is just adding an extra dimension to that work, this time with a focus on the local economy of the area.
The Plugging the Leaks workshops take place on Monday, October 20, continuing on Thursday, November 6, at the Queens Hall, Narberth. For more information and to reserve your place(s) contact PLANED on 01834 862113.
