A one-day regional conference jointly organised by Yorkshire and the Humber Regional Forum and the NCVO Forum for Change.
Join us for 'Influencing Policy, Driving Change', a conference for anyone involved in campaigning and influencing in the voluntary and community sector. This event will help you make sense of the external policy environment and focus on the skills and expertise needed to get your voice heard where it matters - locally, regionally and nationally.
During the day we will explore:
* Key trends in the external policy and campaigning environment
* How to engage with regional and sub-regional decision making structures
* The 'rules of engagement' with Westminster & how to get your voice heard
* The principles for effective collaboration in your campaigning & policy work
The day will end with an interactive Q&A session with Prospective Parliamentary Candidates from the main political parties across the region. Full details of the speakers and workshop choices can be seen by visiting our website at
