Sharing knowledge
Case studies help pass on best practice
At the core of the Forum's existence is the sharing of information, skills and knowledge among rural towns and large parishes.
The Forum has captured this knowledge
in a series of case
studies (see links on the left) which look
at a range of community projects which have received
support of different kinds from the Forum.
Local people who have helped make these projects
'happen' have been kind enough to share their
experiences and 'top tips' to help other rural
communities emulate their successes.
The Forum has also published, and updated, a
Community Toolkit to help get your community buzzing
- the Toolkit includes a useful guide to getting a
community project off the ground. See links on the
left.
Member communities can apply for GMTF
Development Funding and the support
of experiences, professional advisers through
the
Technical Assistance programme to help their
projects get off the ground.
The Forum's
networking
and
look and learn
events give people from all over rural
Gloucestershire a chance to learn from each other.
