In the context of a website, cookies are small pieces of information that is saved in your browser.
Some cookies can help a website work. Others help the website owner understand how people use it and navigate the site.
Our website is somewhere people can understand what we do, find opportunities and get involved.
If you accept optional analytics cookies, this helps us understand which pages people visit, how they find us and whether they click a link to get in touch.
For example, if people visit a programme page but few go on to register, that gives us a reason to check whether the information and next steps are clear and what we could improve.
Website statistics help us see patterns in how people use our site. They do not, by themselves, tell us your name or email address.
When we browse a website, we read and click on things that interest us. Sometimes we read a page to the end, and other times we move on.
These patterns give us clues about what is working and where people might be getting stuck. They don’t tell us the whole story, but they help us ask better questions and make our information clearer, more useful and easier to find.
You can accept or reject optional cookies. Either way, you’re welcome to browse our website, find out what’s happening and complete our forms.
Accepting analytics cookies helps us understand how the website is being used. If you’d rather say no, that’s absolutely fine.
Some cookies help the website work and remember your cookie choices. These stay on because they are needed.
To provide the best experience, we use cookies and similar technologies.
With your permission, we use Google Analytics to help us understand how people use our website, figure out what’s working, and see where we can improve.
Consenting allows us to process data like browsing behaviour or unique IDs; refusing or withdrawing consent may affect certain site features.
You can review or change your choices at any time by selecting the white tab at the bottom of the screen which will take you to your Cookie settings .
