🎉 Great day out for the team! 🎉

Berni and Bal recently attended the ASC Networking Workshop at Stafford Rangers FC! ⚽🤝

It was a fantastic opportunity to connect with partners from Adult Social Care, Health, and fellow VCSE sector colleagues working across Stafford & Districts.

We loved meeting new faces at the marketplace stands, learning about upcoming grant funding opportunities, and hearing the latest findings from local research.

Working together makes our communities stronger, and we’re excited to put some brilliant new collaboration ideas into practice! 💡✨
