The last Trafford Partnership Conference 'Together for Trafford' was on the 5 July 2010 at Lancashire County Cricket Club.

The Conference inspired Partnership members and community representatives to raise the bar of Partnership working and strive to achieve more together and was attended by more than 250 delegates.

The Success Showcase Booklet, Presentations and DVD

Delegates were truly inspired as they heard moving personal tributes from residents who had been the beneficiaries of successful Partnership projects. These included the rapper who educates young people about the pitfalls of violent gangs, the pupils at Seymour Park school who have been enriched by the development of Centenary Gardens, the young offender who had been given a break in life through the Housing Trust’s Clean Start programme, the women who are now participating in sport and physical activity and the brilliant musician who had benefited from the Mental Health Personal Budget.

The Showcase Booklet provides more information on these Partnership projects.

Workshop Book and Presentations

The Conference also enabled the Partnership as a whole to get to grips with some of its most challenging cross-partnership issues from health inequalities to carbon emissions. This was done through a series of workshops and provided partners with a clearer direction on how it will tackle these issues.

The Workshop Book provides a summary of the Workshops and details how the Partnership will take these workshops forward in the future.

Presentations shown in the Workshops are also available to download:

• Carbon Reduction Workshop Presentation
