Nick Clegg's Town Hall meeting
Tuesday 25th May 2010, 14:05
Hi all. My name is Emma Lees, and I’m the new Development Officer – Policy at CDX.
On Friday Tanwir Rauf and I went to one of Nick Clegg’s Town Hall meeting in Sheffield. We went along to see if we could find any more information out about the government ideas for a ‘Big Society’.
We didn’t manage to get to ask our question but certain words seemed to appear in his answers to other questions: Localism, baby steps and radical ideas being the favourite, but what they all mean in the real world is still a mystery. Watch this space….
In the meantime, if you have any views/ideas/updates on this, please get in touch with me (emma@cdx.org.uk). We want to ensure that Community Development and its principles are at the heart of any ‘Big Society’.
Emma Lees, Development Officer - Policy
