Suggestions for writing a Participation Strategy?
Answered 1 Sep 2008 by p.shoreI work for a small charity providing literacy, numeracy and key skills tuition for adults and young people. I have been asked to write a 'participation strategy' with a view to ensuring our service users have a real say in the development of our projects.
