in it together is a proposal written by a working group on behalf of the Dudley Community Partnership. See background briefing no 1-  in it together: how this proposal was developed in our downloads section to find out more about the Working Group.

 

The working group are consulting the Dudley Community Partnership membership between June and September 2008 to establish whether people agree with the ideas presented in the document.

 

This proposal is written consciously and purposely to inform a strategy for Dudley Community Partnership. It therefore is limited in scope to those activities which occur in Dudley on the authority of the Dudley Community Partnership. Content in the document may of course be applied more widely, but it should be clear that the proposal does not seek to replace the community engagement strategies of partner agencies, which will have a different, but complimentary, focus.

 

The working group believe that the ideas presented in in it together are quite different to those in community engagement strategies produced in other localities. In order to make the document itself engaging the group have written it in a conversational style and included cartoons to add humour.
