Creative activity at Dudley's Community Engagement Network 5
Channel: Lorna Prescott
Date: 19/09/2011

Inspiration in difficult times: in groups participants at the networking event discussed problems and opportunities that they feel and see in relation to more empowering ways of engaging communities. In this clip Mandy Poonia reads a poem she wrote with her group. The discussion and activity resulted in people from a range of different groups and organisations, who had never met before, to realise that they all faced similar issues. This activity was a pre-cursor to identifying simple steps they could take to work with communities in more empowering ways.
