It’s the conference season

Is democracy working for Scotland’s communities?  That’s the motion to be chewed over at the DTAS Debate which will kick start their 2017 Annual Conference – It’s All About People.  Always a sell-out, so get your tickets early – 3rd/4th September. This heralds the start of conference season for Scotland’s community sector. The Scottish Islands’ Federation meet in Orkney the following week, Scottish Rural Action the week after, with Community Woodlands Association, Community Resources Network Scotland and Community Transport Association all hard on their heels.
