We have partnered with Disability Rights UK to offer a bespoke leadership programme for disabled councillors. We are committed to supporting under-represented groups in local government and we understand the value of providing councillors with learning opportunities alongside peers with shared experience.

This roundtable was chaired by Chris Shears, Head of Economy & Place, South Hams District Council & West Devon Borough Council. It gave councils an opportunity to share insights into how they are attracting a new talent pool, both in economic development and more generally. It also allowed for a discussion on how staff is retained within the sector.
