Thank you to those of you who attended our Vision and Voice conference in March 2010.

At the event we asked delegates to set their own agenda and discuss the issues that were important to them.  The resulting discussion groups covered areas including encouraging small businesses to set up in Reading; raising young people's aspirations; expectations for voluntary services in an environment of reduced funding; improving health provision for older people, and several other key topics. Each discussion group created their own vision and three priorities on how how to achieve it, which will be fed back through the Local Strategic Partnership and other themed partnerships as Voluntary and Community Sector input into the the refreshed Sustainable Community Strategy.
