Leadership Development Days offer a blend of skills training and personal development work for people who want to help shape and change the world around
Are you someone who likes taking initiative and longs to change the world around you? Do you want to influence public life in the UK? Would you like to be a school Governor, part of a community forum, a tenants association, a Non-Departmental Public Body? Or do you think you might like to, if only you knew where to start?
Radar (the diasability network charity) is interested in equipping disabled people and people with long-term health conditions to be leaders and influencers in public life. That is what their new series of Leadership Development Days is all about.
The 2008 Leadership Development Days will offer a blend of skills training and personal development work. They will be open to anyone experiencing ill health, injury or disability who has aspirations to lead and positively influence the world they are living and working in. A number of places on both days will be reserved for disabled people from black or minority ethnic backgrounds, as these groups are under-represented in leadership and influential positions.
The Development Days are taking place on:
• Wednesday 12th November in Glasgow
• Thursday 13th November in Birmingham
Applications on the attached form have to be returned by 5 September
