Would you like to play a role in shaping the future of the Fens Adventurers area?
If you are a local professional or volunteer who has experience within one of the programme’s four priorities and good local knowledge, then you would be useful asset to the Fens Adventurers Local Action Group
and may be interested in joining the LAG or attending one of the programme’s thematic groups.
The Local Action Group (LAG)
The key role of the LAG will be to provide strategic direction through the development and annual review of the programme’s strategy. It also has the responsibility of animating the strategy through supporting and monitoring
appropriate projects that will meet objectives outlined in the Local Development Strategy. The LAG will generally meet at least four times per year and the current membership of the LAG as at June 2009 is 34. Please visit the section resources and downloads for a list of current LAG members and contact the programme team for a list of future LAG meeting dates.
The Thematic Groups
The Thematic Groups provide an opportunity for local professionals, who have good awareness of local needs for the programme’s four priorities, to share their knowledge with others and generate ideas and local initiatives through utilising the FARDP funds. The Thematic Groups are essentially workshops and therefore have no membership requirements or attendance obligations.
In general, these groups will meet at least four times per year. Please contact the programme team for more information including dates for future meetings.
I’m interested, what next?
