Stronger Together: A Regional Learning Exchange for Village Halls & Community Spaces
A practical Learning Exchange for people involved in running village halls and community spaces across Argyll & Bute – a chance to share what’s working, learn from others and take away ideas for your own community.
Date and time: to
Location: Ardrishaig Public Hall 43 Chalmers St, Ardrishaig, Lochgilphead, PA30 8EY
Organisation: Partnership Event
Village halls are often the heart of rural and island communities. They are places for people to gather, learn, access services and have fun. Making sure they are well run and maintained is an important but not always easy role, often fulfilled by committed volunteers and workers.
This practical Learning Exchange is for people involved in running village halls and community spaces across Argyll & Bute – a chance to share what’s working, learn from others and take away ideas for your own community.
The day will explore:
- Health & wellbeing – tackling loneliness and isolation, supporting wellbeing and building community resilience.
- Youth participation – practical ways to involve more young people in shaping and running community spaces.
- Peer learning & shared solutions – hear from community speakers, then take part in an interactive Open Host session shaped by the issues that matter to you.
The workshop will also explore the potential for an Argyll & Bute Village Halls Network to strengthen ongoing peer support and learning.
Places are limited and prioritised for village halls and community spaces in Argyll & Bute. Lunch and refreshments provided. Travel bursaries are available, with accommodation support on a needs basis.
Delivered in partnership by: Social Enterprise Scotland, InspirAlba, Scottish Rural Action and the Scottish National Rural Network.
