Eden Community Fair and Conference 2012

'Practical Advice for Community Projects'

10am-3pm, Saturday 17 November 2012, Low Hesket Village Hall

Community groups from across Eden District met at Low Hesket Village Hall on Saturday 17 November 2012 at the second annual Eden Community Conference to discuss developing and delivering community projects in their areas.

Over 90 delegates attended the event, which had four main themes, identified as being common priority areas in Community Led Plans across Eden. These four themes were:

• Setting up youth groups and facilities
• Improving footpaths and cycle ways
• Sustaining your community building
• Tackling fuel poverty in your community

The Eden Community Fair and Conference 2012 brought together experts in these fields under one roof to provide advice and answer questions, including Young Cumbria, Cumbria County Council's Countryside Ranger service, ACTion with Communities in Cumbria (ACT) and Cumbria Action for Sustainability (CAFS).
