| We
provide training to community groups and voluntary organisations in Sussex.
All our training events respond
directly to outreach and ongoing consultation with local community groups
and voluntary organisations.
Please do regularly let
us know what training you are interested in as we only run training that
groups tell us they want.
The training is free (unless stated
otherwise) for community activists,
volunteers, paid workers and management committee members and is delivered
in community venues.
