H&I Climate Hub - Introduction to Community Wealth Building

11 April 2023


Starts: 14:00
Ends: 15:30

Tuesday 11 April 2023   2.00 - 3.30   online

Community Wealth Building - what is it and how to have your voice heard?

You may have noticed that the Scottish Government are consulting on the legislation around Community Wealth Building.

The Programme for Government 2021-22 confirmed plans to introduce legislation on Community Wealth Building during this Parliamentary session. The legislation will accelerate the delivery of Community Wealth Building across Scotland and address blockages identified by the areas and organisations leading the implementation of Community Wealth Building.

For this reason, its important that our members are heard. We need to share the invaluable knowledge and barriers members experience to ensure that the Community Wealth Building legislation works for all.

Regardless of your knowledge on the subject, we would love to see you at our online event on 11th April from 2pm. This session will offer an introduction to Community Wealth Building, what it is and allow you to share your opinions on how the legislation should be shaped.

The Hub will then take responses and submit a joint response to Scottish Government. You can read the consultation details in advance here. In addition, you can read the consultation survey so you’re familiar with the questions being asked.

Our event on the 11th April is exclusive to members - if you’re not a member yet, simply fill in the form here and you’d be welcome to join us. If you are a member and would like to attend, email us and we’ll pop you over the booking link.
