*RBWM World Cafes!*


What is a RBWM World Cafe?

  • An informal networking event where residents can have open conversations about what matters most to them, access relevant support and mingle with other residents/groups


We have now held a World Cafe style event in every ward across the Borough.

For each event we have compiled an evaluation and outcomes report that summarises the key themes and priorities that residents discussed and the actions that were taken post event.

The reports are available to view under the 'Documents' tab on the right

We are now working on the next steps of the programme and will use the World Cafe insights to generate sustainable resident-led solutions to the issues that matter most to residents. To find out more please visit our Innovation Fund page.

For an overview of each World Café event please see the 'Previous World Cafe's' tab below

    Our Hurley World Cafe took place on 21st July 2022 at Hurley Village Hall.

    We have learnt that for our future World Cafe events we may need to adapt the format to better reflect the support that is needed in the community. For example, for our Walthams World Cafe we will be adopting a speed networking format to allow residents learn about as many services as possible.
