Consultation process

·         Annual Community Conference - the format this year will be different this year due to Covid-19.  In some ways this provides us with an opportunity to try a range of engagement approaches.

 

·         Sharing with networks of community groups and partnerships to invite their feedback and also to ask them to seek the feedback of their members and participants.

 

·         Use of our Web and Social Media channels to promote and invite feedback from both organisations and individuals in the Bay.
