Recommendations about how training and enterprise councils and foyers can work together to combat poverty have been published in a new partnership guide.

Working Together ­ the Good Practice Guide for Foyer and TEC Partnerships highlights cases where the two organizations have collaborated to help disadvantaged young people to reconnect with the community, learning and work.

The guide also looks forward to new challenges facing the two organizations ­ in promoting lifelong learning and community regeneration and working together on the new deal.

The guide is available from the Foyer Federation, on 0171 833 8616.
