Calling all community activists in Wincanton, Castle Cary, Bruton and surrounding areas!

Are you looking for a volunteering opportunity? Do you want to improve your skills and employment prospects?

The Balsam Centre, Wincanton

South Somerset District Council in partnership with the Balsam Centre is hosting an Area East Community Forum on Thursday 21st March, 3.00pm - 7.00pm at the Balsam Centre, Balsam Park, Wincanton. The event will enable you to:

  • Find out more about what is going on now in your area;
  • Help find a volunteering opportunity;
  • Improve your skills and employment prospects;
  • Meet organisations who provide services and find out what they do;
  • Discuss the help available to you to get things done in your community.

This is a drop in session focussing on volunteering and skills, promoting local opportunities for Parishes, Groups and individuals within Area East.

A wide range of organisations will be available to give advice and support so please come along and chat with them.

Cllr Mike Lewis, Area East Chairman said:

"The Area East Community Forum is an excellent way for all community activists to get involved in projects and influence local services in the area. The forum gives local people from Wincanton, Castle Cary, Milborne Port, Ilchester, Bruton and all the other surrounding areas in Area East the chance to network with local services and organisations. I believe this should be an exciting event to attend and will help local community activists to get on their way."
