On 12 February Garden Court collaborated with digital media organisation sounddelivery to host an evening exploring innovative ways to give a voice to people who are socially excluded, marginalised and suffer from social injustice.
The evening attracted staff from a wide range of organisations including charities, international NGOs, campaigning groups and people working in the legal profession. What united everybody was an interest in getting practical tips and tools to give a voice to the people they work with in order to affect positive social change.
