Communities and neighbourhoods

Summary

The Community Power Pack is a practical guide, which can help people play a more active role in their community and influence decisions that matter to them. It is easy to read and focused on fun and creative activities.

There are many opportunities to influence government decisions today, but for many community members it is hard to know where to start. This document provides help and support with planning and running community events in easy and low cost ways.

The Power Pack provides:

• information on different activities for community members
• practical advice on how to run events
• suggested agendas
• checklists to help you make your participation events a success

How do I use it?

You can download a hard copy of the Power Pack and accompanying 'topic discussion guides' below. You can choose the most relevant 'topic discussion guide' for your community group. Every time we publish a new consultation on empowerment-related themes we will put a 'topic guide' on this page that can be used alongside the Power Pack.

The Power Pack has been produced in collaboration between Communities and Local Government and Involve (external link).
