Involvement and engagement are key to the success of any event and an organised event, whether high profile or low key, can certainly bring the local community together,
Whatever the type of event or purpose in running it, an event can help to facilitate local awareness, act as a vehicle or starting point for involvement or change or, just as a corporate event aims to build a team, a community event can literally help to build community spirit.
An event which has a specific ‘community’ addition, such as sending out free invitations to locals or having a ‘locals only’ session can also really help to get the community together and engaged in the wider purposes of the event.
