The Community Cohesion Team of Bristol City Council wanted to run two ‘conversations’ that would bring together women of different belief and faith backgrounds to discuss their identity, values and beliefs. thinkingpeople were commissioned to design the structure of the two events and to support eight community facilitators to effectively run the workshops. The community facilitators were taken through some group activities to help them share their experiences of dealing with difficult behaviours and prejudiced comments and their strategies for working with these behaviours. Work was also done to stress the importance of their support to inclusive communication at the events.
