ABCs of Community Assets

The ABCs of Community Assets is a training programme to inspire a nation of new community asset leaders. The programme – featuring online workshops and in-person study visits – supports local groups to find out more about acquiring, managing, and future-proofing vital assets in their communities.

If you would like to support this project or run this programme in partnership with your organisation, get in touch with workshops@stirtoaction.com
