The prevailing notion of retired, predominantly male parish and town councillors persists, echoing the enduring image from the Vicar of Dibley era despite ongoing national campaigns to challenge this perception.
This event will delve into major national diversity stakeholders' perspectives on this situation and explore strategies for local councils to attract a more diverse and youthful pool of candidates for election or co-option. Gain insights into the shared challenges organisations face in a world where fewer people have the time to volunteer.
Uncover your council's success secrets in attracting a broader, more diverse range of candidates willing to volunteer as local councillors against all odds.
