Learning Together Conference 10 - Thursday March 11th 2010 Chester Racecourse
Learning Together Cheshire and Warrington (LTCW), formerly Cheshire and Warrington Voluntary Sector Learning Forum, is now ten years old and we want you to help us to celebrate. Ten years on LTCW is an independent Third Sector Learning Consortium with in excess of 120 member organisations. It is a learning and skills champion adding value to the sector and contributing to the sub-regional Integrated Employment and Skills Strategy which feeds into the emerging Regional Spatial Strategy. This conference will be an opportunity, to act as a catalyst, to capture the stories behind the numerous successful learning, skills and employment initiatives. We intend to provide more than abstract outputs which detract from the real value of the work. We believe that telling stories in this way is a valuable way of exchanging information, extending ideas, reaching out and connecting with other people and bridging gaps. It’s time to tell the stories behind the initiatives – we invite you to be part of it.
Places are limited – so make sure you book early and reserve your place
Alternatively contact admin@learning-together.co.uk to give us your details. We will contact all those registering their interest nearer the conference date with details of the workshops and inviting you to confirm your place and arranging any payment if required.
Members of LTCW are entitled to two free places - non members and delegates from statutory organisations, colleges and private sector will be required to pay £50 per place.
