Worcestershire Meeting Centres Community Support Programme

In January 2020, Worcestershire County Council (WCC) announced that it was providing funding of up to £540,000 from the County’s Business Rates Retention Pilot (see press release) to support the setting up and running of Meeting Centres across the whole of Worcestershire for the benefit of Worcestershire citizens.

As part of this work, two short videos have been produced with the new Meeting Centres in Worcestershire to show what Meeting Centres are, focusing on two different audiences: 

• Members and carers
• Referrers
