Norfolk Community Development Workers Network

From Norfolk RCC

This page is designed to support the role of community development workers in Norfolk by providing a space where they can exchange information and ideas for the benefit of the communities with which they work.

Community development worker is a broad generic term to describe anyone who provides advice and support to individuals or groups within a community. That community can be defined by geographical area (North Norfolk, Dereham etc.) or by any other shared characteristic (youth, migrant workers etc.).

It is very easy to become daunted by the challenges we face. It is therefore important that we support each other and it is hoped that this page is one way of doing that. Please feel free to add information and comments.

Link to advice for trustees

I followed up this link to a newsletter produced for Trustees in the East of England, by The Suffolk Association of Voluntary Organisations and thought it might be useful to pass on:
