There will be a Marketplace where you can bring information leaflets etc about the work of your organisation and the chance to network with other attendees. There will also be the opportunity to take part in one of four workshops looking at partnership working, building trust across roles, organisations & communities, strategies for managing challenges and different expectations, and identifying mechanisms for sustaining collaboration.
