Welcome to the CTA’s Community Building Sessions
Running a Community Transport (CT) Organisation is rewarding, offering great chances to support communities and make an impact. We also know it can be isolated and challenging, especially when seeking advice or discussing issues and opportunities.
Our Advice & Support team run monthly Community Building sessions, holding virtual space to bring CT operators and CTA staff together once a month to discuss key topics for the sector.
We believe that these sessions can be much more than just a place to get advice – they are an opportunity for peer-to-peer support and community building for our members. We recognise that our members face unique challenges and that the support of peers who understand those challenges can be incredibly valuable.
Our goal is to make these sessions engaging and interactive and to foster a sense of community among all of us who are working to improve transport services in our communities.
Our Community Building sessions run once a month on a Wednesday at 11am, and create opportunities for CTA and members to;
- Discuss specific, or general, CT problems in an open and supportive environment,
- Uncover emerging trends such as decarbonisation, climate actions, funding opportunities or any updates across the sector.
- Resolve more complex or sensitive queries from members through peer-to-peer learning.
- Connect with CT Operators across regional/national boundaries.
- Gather intelligence and ideas from CT Operators about what’s happening in the sector to feed into CTA’s policy, influencing and campaign work.
- Gather feedback from members on how CTA can better support their cause.
