An invitation to meet with Blackpool Council

 

 
Andy Divall has asked me to circulate this invitation more widely around our Together Lancashire networks in Blackpool...As I understand it this is an open meeting to which all are welcome but please do RSVP to Andy Divall, Pay, Equality and Policy Manager, Blackpool Council (andy.divall@blackpool.gov.uk).

Dear Faith Leader

We would like to invite you or a representative of your organisation to a meeting we are hosting for all key Faith leaders across Blackpool.

The purpose of this is to provide an opportunity to discuss opportunities arising from a new report from the Church Urban Fund, http://www.cuf.org.uk/blog/good-neighbours-how-churches-help-communities-flourish ahead of a forthcoming further meeting with the Bishop of Lancaster, Rt Rev Geoff Pearson.

The meeting will be held at 4pm on Monday 29th September, in Blackpool Town Hall.  We do hope you or a representative of your group will be able to attend.

If you would like to accept or decline this invitation, please forward this to Andy Divall, Pay, Equality and Policy Manager, Blackpool Council (andy.divall@blackpool.gov.uk).

Kind regards.
