Unlocking Community Assets event on 16 March 2010

This event is organised by London Civic Forum and aims to provide an opportunity for delegates to learn about asset transfer, focusing specifically on how to minimise and manage risk through robust accountability and governance arrangements.


The event is being delivered as part of the London Empowerment Partnership, an initiative from Communities and Local Government designed to improve the quality, coordination and evidence of community empowerment across the region.


The purpose of this event is to raise awareness of asset transfer as a mechanism for empowering communities and enabling local ownership of community assets. The focus of the event will be on exploring governance in asset transfer and providing guidance and advice on how to manage risk and strengthen governance arrangements. The event will aim to provide a platform for public sector and community representatives to discuss best practice approaches and use cross-sector discussions to assess the challenges and benefits of asset transfer.
