Beacon
Councils
The new round of the Beacon Councils programme was launched recently
and several of the themes may be of interest to local groups. You
may wish to contact your local authority to find out if they are
going to be involved and find out if there are any opportunities
for joint working. The IDeA is running a number of events about
the new themes and details can be found on the IDeA web site (you
will need to register, but it only takes a few minutes).
Beacon learning exchanges
Learning exchange dates have been set for the round five beacon
themes, and will feature keynote speakers such as the Rt Hon Margaret
Hodge MBE MP, Minister for Children, Young People and Families,
Chris Pond MP, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, and Hazel
Blears MP, Minister for Crime Reduction, Policing and Community
Safety.

Neighbourhood Renewal
Fund
The Government has also recently published information about this
year's NRF allocations, which may be of interest to those of you
in neighbourhood renewal areas. They are fairly large documents,
so be aware that it will take a long time to download if you have
a dial up link.
