Business in the Community will hold a one-day conference tomorrow on the opportunities and challenges of implementing community investment programmes. Participants will look at the role community investment programmes can play in increasing business competitiveness and will explore how the benefits of business activities can be harnessed to improve community life.
Glasshouse Partnership’s client, Premier Rugby, form one of the conference’s case studies and will offer an analysis of how professional sports clubs and businesses can collaborate on corporate community programs. Ben Breeze of Bristol Rugby will discuss a three-part initiative which seeks to use the medium of sport as a platform to engage with at-risk youth to address anti-social behaviour, anger management and youth offending.
