SOSE engagement tour Phase 2

SOSE engagement tour Phase 2

South of Scotland Enterprise (SOSE) is continuing its engagement tour, which started at the end of last year..

‘Your South of Scotland’ is open to everyone in the region to meet SOSE Chair Professor Russell Griggs and Chief Executive Jane Morrison-Ross at one of 24 dates between November 2021 and March 2022.

The sessions will allow businesses, social enterprises, community groups and the general public to give their views on what they think the priorities should be for our local economy.

This feedback will also help SOSE shape its first ever three year Action Plan – a vital strategy which will set out SOSE’s priorities and ambitions for the region.

‘Your South of Scotland’ will also allow SOSE to report back on previous engagement in Phase One.

Importantly, all venues used during ‘Your South of Scotland’ engagement tour will be COVID-safe, with booking required in advance see this link for further info. https://www.southofscotlandenterprise.com/engagementsessions

For those unable to attend, there will be a virtual online session held, with one of the physical events expected to also be streamed over SOSE’s social media channels.

Phase 2 dates for Scottish Borders are listed below. See their website link for additional dates/venues in Dumfries & Galloway.

SOSE’s message to the South of Scotland – as it has been since day one of SOSE – is please come and talk to us, and would hugely appreciate if you can help share information about the tour with your contacts.
