What is it?
Take Part Pathfinder aims to encourage and support people to be active
citizens. Active Citizens try to do things that have a positive effect on
their communities. This can mean anything from responding to consultations
and surveys to voting in local and national elections, from volunteering to
becoming a local councillor, from setting up a community group to becoming a
school governor.
Why should you “take part”?
Because your ideas and opinions are important! They help to shape the
decisions that are made about the area where you live. Take Part Pathfinder
can help you by showing the routes others have taken into an active role.
How can you “take part”?
Attend one of our discussion groups or workshops; enrol on our free
Leadership course starting in January 2010 and aimed at people who want to
develop the skills needed to achieve the most out of being active citizens.
If you already have lots of experience or skills to share, you can volunteer
for our Mentoring course where you will learn how to support others with
developing as active citizens.
