The training programme will equip voluntary and community
organisations (VCOs) with the skills to negotiate effectively with
public bodies on issues such as funding cuts, policy change
consultation and local authority decisions concerning the provision
of services.
Training events will take place across the country and
will be open to all VCOs funded by, or seeking funding from, public
bodies. These one-day sessions will include group activities and
case study examples of solving disputes with public bodies, as well
as providing guidance on how to manage such issues in the
future.
We are unable to accept bookings from public bodies.
Training sessions will cover the following topics:
- What is public law, who are public bodies and what are
public functions?
- What duties and powers do public bodies have in relation
to public law?
- What happens when things go wrong?
- What can you do when faced with such
problems?
More information is available on
dates and venues.
