Working Together Webinars
With Dorset Council and other relevant parties, DAPTC holds Working Together Webinars to brief parish and town councils about key changes, projects and initiatives that will affect lives in Dorset. The webinars provide an opportunity to engage with Dorset Council officers and elected members and other specilaist experts. Webinars may simply provide information to keep local councils updated or ask for action - it all depends on the topic. To find out more about the purpose of Working Together webinars, WATCH THIS 1 MINUTE VIDEO on Vimeo.
Who should come along?
Anyone from your council; councillor or employee, who is interested in the topic and will provide an update to your council at the next opportunity. As the webinars are online, there is no limit to how many can attend - the more the merrier!
What if I can't attend?
DAPTC will publish any resources from webinars as soon as possible, in an article similar to those below. Where possible the webinars are recorded and also uploaded for those that can't make it on the day.
