Community Brokerage Gathering: Championing Communities

Ideas, people and possibilities in one place

Wednesday 30 September, 10am – 3:30pm
Glasgow, Megalithic Suite, Radisson Blu Hotel, 301 Argyle St, G2 8DL

What does it mean to champion communities when communities are increasingly changing?

Through open conversations, shared experiences, and practical insight, we’ll create space to connect across roles, organisations and communities. Whether you’re interested in community brokerage, delivering it from your kitchen table or within an organisation, providing services, shaping policy, or drawing on your own lived experience, this is a chance to learn from each other and think differently about how support happens.

Together, we’ll explore how strong relationships, creative thinking and community connections can strengthen choice and control, helping to make better lives a reality, with community brokerage at the heart of it all.

This is a day built around real conversations, honest reflection and meaningful connections that can lead to change.

Join us to share ideas, challenge thinking and be part of a growing community committed to doing things differently through community brokerage.
