Events
Voices of Cook aims to strengthen community engagement in the democratic process by providing a venue that encourages the discussion of ideas, concerns and needs in an open and respectful setting.
In order to do this we use a 'Kitchen Table Conversations' process and a survey to gather and present community ideas and concerns in a Listening Report. These will be supported by events such as forums and webinars, as well as informal gatherings such as coffee chats, politics in the pub and 'democracy walks'.
To express interest in any of our upcoming events click on the RSVP button below the event you are interested in and fill in your details. One of our team members will be in touch with you shortly.
