With so much going on at a local level it is often difficult to fully appreciate the work of other trusts, see the successes they have had and how they've achieved them. This session gave an opportunity to hear from supporters' trusts that have had a particularly busy year for different reasons - be it running campaigns, scrutinising their clubs, engaging and growing their membership or building partnerships and influence - something for everyone. We know that the relationship that a trust has with the club they support can have a big bearing on the type of work that goes on, so in the first session we heard from trusts that have a good partnership with their club, whereas in the second session we will heard from trusts that either have no working relationship or a begrudging one at best.
