Subject : Better for Everyone Virtual Events 2020
Hi All
People across County Durham are being invited to have their say on the future of the area at a series of virtual events where residents will also be thanked for their good work during the pandemic.
Between 20 October and 12 November each of our 14 Area Action Partnerships (AAPs) will meet to gather the views of residents and businesses on a wide range of issues. Please encourage anyone who lives or works in County Durham to get involved in their local session.
By attending you will also find out about:
- How groups and individuals in your area have been supporting your community during the pandemic.
- Hear from Cllr Simon Henig, leader of the council, about the priorities and goals for the next 15 years, which have been set as part of the Vision for the county. These aims are based on feedback gathered from the public during a consultation carried out last year.
- Have the opportunity to shape the county's future activities, including £20 million of work to make towns and villages around the county more vibrant - one of the key priorities of the Vision.
- Hear an update from Amanda Healy, County Durham's Director of Public Health, on the coronavirus pandemic and details of how residents can play their part in reducing the spread of the virus by becoming community champions.
Did you know that since the pandemic began, the AAPs have provided more than £1.1 million to almost 300 community groups and organisations working to support the county's most vulnerable residents? This is alongside the support given to groups by agencies such as Durham Community Action and the County Durham Community Foundation.
Everyone attending the events will have the opportunity to show their appreciation for this joint effort and raise awareness of those who have given their time to help others.
