Key strengths for this programme will not just be in the knowledge covered in the workshops but also in bringing like-minded people together – creating a valuable opportunity to connect, network, share ideas, experiences and information; and allowing organisations to implement a comprehensive training programme for their people.
Special thanks to Community Trust South and our delivery partners for investing in this new initiative to help build a strong Southland community.
