Whether you’re managing a community benefits scheme or completely new to it, you'll hear more about the consultation, and be able to share your ideas and experience to inform good practice going forward.

We’re hoping people from a wide range of the community can make it along, whether as an individual or representing a group.

Places will be limited, so we’re asking you to submit an expression of interest to attend, and we’ll confirm your place at least one week in advance of your chosen session.

These events are being held by SCDC on behalf of the Scottish Government.
