Support and development opportunties for communities in Annandale & Eskdale
Following on from the success of capacity building sessions delivered earlier this year by AECVS and CLD in Gretna, the Rural Partnership has developed a programme of capacity building sessions available to communities in Annandale & Eskdale. As you will see from the programme, we have taken a different approach to delivery and will now bring the training to your community.
Please see the programme for more detail and should you require any further information please do not hesitate to contact either Kate Nutt, AECVS or Jamie Ferguson, CLD.
