&lt;p style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;Are you part of a Voluntary &amp;amp; Community Sector network that makes a real difference and has a voice that is heard?&lt;br /&gt;Or…Are you frustrated and feel that your organisation or network cannot affect change?&lt;br /&gt;We would like to hear about your experiences as they will help shape the Warwickshire Voluntary &amp;amp; Community Sector Assembly.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;How would an Assembly help to get my voice heard?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;The Assembly will increase communication and information being shared between existing networks and representatives to reinforce the voice of the voluntary sector. It will also give Voluntary &amp;amp; Community Sector representatives on Boards and Committees a clear message from the sector.&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
