foodbank2

As you may be aware, following the publication of our research report on emergency food aid in Scotland (www.foodaidscotland.org), the Poverty Alliance is running a series of regional workshop events for those involved in delivering emergency food aid in Scotland.

The aim is to provide opportunities for networking, peer support and learning, and to connect with wider anti-poverty work and campaigns.

The sessions will include presentations from invited speakers and group work discussion on the following themes:

  • Partnership working with advice and support service
  • Sanctions and the Scottish Welfare Fund

  • Stigma and challenging public attitudes to poverty

The following future events are planned:

Edinburgh – 16 June

Aberdeen – 27 August

Inverness – 22 October
