Promotion of CHP

Signposting service

Dissemination of information

‘Networking’ development

These ongoing activities would avoid duplicating work already done elsewhere. There is however an initial once-off workload involving preparation of membership prospectus, recruitment campaign, constitution development, organisational set-up activity. This work will be carried out mainly by bmf. Members will be invited (as appropriate, depending on the specific issue) to lead or participate actively in the lobbying and campaigning side of the Association’s work.
