Linked Work & Training Trust won a prestigious award for "Best Practice in Regeneration 2003" for our outstanding example of regeneration.
The award, made by the British Urban Regeneration Association, recognises the Trusts work in providing degree level training to people excluded from the normal routes into Higher Education.
Cathy Peattie, MSP, Chairperson of LWTT says:-
"It was
a great accolade to have the work of the Trust recognised by the British
Urban
Regeneration
Association which awarded the Trust only one of five UK wide awards and the
only winner in Scotland. The award ceremony was held in London
and it was my privilege and honour to accept it on behalf of the Trust from
John Prescott, Deputy Prime Minister. This success can only attributed
to the level of commitment and inspiration among LWTT Directors, workplace
supervisors, students, staff and mentors".
BURA says:-
"The LWTT model is an outstanding example of a project that builds the capacity of excluded communities to develop and harness their own skills, commitment, experience and confidence to contribute to sustained local economic and social regeneration, and demonstrates best practice".
Previous winners of the BURA award have included large scale regeneration projects like the Millenium Link, Union Square in North Shields and the riverside in Newark.

Many thanks to Ca

Guthrie of The Scottish Council for Voluntary Organisations (SCVO) who
nominated LWTT for the award and Falkirk and Clackmannanshire Councils for
hosting a Civic Reception in honour of our achievement.
LWTT needs to continue to build on its vision by continuing to develop more employment and training opportunities for those active in their own communities.
