• Establishing vital useful information – opening times, parking, transport links, registration requirements
• Finding the most accessible way to get this information to the people who may need it – for example, poster in our notice boards, website, leaflet for our BLCS team to take, letter drops etc.
• Identify opportunities to works with local councils and support local initiatives e.g. food bank events.
• Document the success of events the Trust have supported and develop case studies of success.
