How can our local group meetings be more effective?
14 April 2011

Use the Local Groups Handbook to help you in this area, especially the chapters on Inspiration and Teamwork.

You might also find our on How to run better meetings helpful, as well as our guide for facilitators which shows how to make meetings more useful and enjoyable.

You can also talk to your Network Developer for extra ideas or to discuss any specific issues your group is experiencing.
