Registration has now opened for a free masterclass which will teach participants how to set up, develop and grow co-operatives.
The seminar entitled Co-operatives and Community Benefit Societies will be taking place as part of the Community Shares, Ready! Project, commissioned by the Building Change Trust.
Co-operative Alternatives in collaboration with Jo Bird, a specialist practitioner with 20 years’ experience in developing co-operatives, will be delivering the session.
