19th May 2009 - The Orbit Centre,
Merthyr Tydfil
Feedback From Conference
This innovative event focused on the
role of Federations and large representatives tenants groups
across Wales and sought to raise awareness of issues likely to
affect tenants in a era of devolution and potentially massive
investment in participation. There was a wide range of speakers
and workshops offering valuable and useful information to help
strengthen these structures.
