Shadow Communities Secretary and North Wales Assembly Member Mark Isherwood highlighted Flintshire’s forthcoming Third Sector Conference during a question in the Assembly Chamber this week.
During his spokesperson’s question to the Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Children, Carl Sargeant AM, Mr Isherwood referred to the conference which will take place in September and invited the Cabinet Secretary to attend.
He said:
“ You might be aware, and if not, hopefully you will be now, that in Flintshire, as has happened elsewhere in Wales, there’s going to be a Third Sector Conference on 7 September, ‘Co-production in Practice’, looking at the principles of co-production, early intervention, adverse childhood experiences, strengthening the power of the third sector and building resilient communities. You may be already aware of it - I asked that you be invited - but, if not, and your diary is free, will you consider attending?”
The Cabinet Secretary replied: “I am aware of that event and I will give that some further consideration. As the Member will appreciate, my diary does get rather busy at times, but if I can come along, I will do so. “
