About this event

Event lasts 8 hours
Paid venue parking

You may have heard of or attended a national Gather movement conference previously. Instead of hosting a national summit in 2025, the Gather movement is wanting to showcase what is happening regionally by travelling around the country to develop greater unity-based transformation.

Transforming Notts Together and Derby City Vision are hosting a full day conference designed to offer a chance for the Church to celebrate what is happening across the region, to plan together for the future as well as presenting to local political leaders and local church members to excite interest.

Together for the Region will bring together local, regional and national speakers and targeted workshops where the work of the church and charities is celebrated, people are inspired and trained to work together with statutory bodies in social, spiritual and cultural transformation.

Please note, lunch will be provided. Please list any dietary requirements when booking.
