The Fundraisers Network returns this month!
Thursday 15 October 1pm to 2pm

Do you sometimes wonder how best to keep up to date with fundraising opportunities? Are you looking for new fundraising ideas but are not sure where to start? Would you like to chat with others with responsibility for fundraising for their voluntary organisation?

We’d love you to join our Fundraising Network to share ideas and tips, solve problems, and generally feel more confident in your fundraising role.

At this meeting, Anna will be presenting a quick How To Guide to GrantNav and Jigna will share some top tips to ensure your group is funder ready!

The event runs from 1pm to 2pm, with an optional 30 minutes (until 2:30pm) for networking and questions.

Safe Soulmates CIC is applying for government funding to help more autistic people, neurodivergent people and people with learning disabilities into paid work, and to help them stay there. Good jobs depend on employers as much as job seekers, so the organisation wants to hear directly from employers.

The short survey asks how confident employers feel about recruiting, supporting and keeping neurodivergent staff, what’s already working well, and where extra support would make a real difference. The responses will help shape a programme that works for employers as well as employees, and will strengthen the funding bid by showing what local organisations actually need.

There are no right or wrong answers, and every response helps.

We know volunteering changes lives, fights isolation and improves confidence and skills. It makes our community a better place and helps our wellbeing.

Our monthly virtual coffee mornings are where people interested in volunteering can come and meet someone from a local community group and find out about their work and what volunteering opportunities are available. The session is helped along by our volunteering development worker Ellie and our own volunteer Amy.

Whether you are thinking about volunteering but aren't sure how to go about it or maybe you've been helping out your community but you'd like to do more. Come and find out what's on offer.

Please book to receive the Zoom link: https://buff.ly/362xm00
