From Sophie Sinclair at WMEN whose office is in Unit 314:

In response to a number of requests from people involved in youth work around the region, West Midlands European Network will now provide advice and guidance to people wishing to submit applications to the Youth Exchange priority of the EU Youth Programme. In the UK this programme is managed by the British Council and the ConnectYouth Programme Team is supporting WMEN to provide advice to applicants in the West Midlands.

WMEN are running seminars to explore the programme in more depth from 10am - 12.30pm on Tuesday 17 June and Wednesday 9 July at the Custard Factory in Birmingham. The cost will be £20 for voluntary sector orgs and youth groups and £40 for public sector orgs. WMENs seminars are not open to representatives of private sector organisations. Should you wish to book please complete the booking form attached and return it asap as places are limited and we expect demand to be high.
