Charity Connections is a dedicated business network for professionals in London's diverse Charitable, Non-Profit, Political, and Third sectors.We invite you to the Sterling Bar at the World Famous Gherkin in the Heart of the City of London for our September 2025 Networking Reception. Enjoy an evening of delightful food and drinks while engaging in discussions about the Third Sector. This is a great chance to learn, make new friends, and discover new business opportunities.With over a decade of experience, our networking events have become a successful, cost-efficient, and enjoyable method for generating new connections.
The Gherkin is one of the most iconic architectural spots in London and the stylish Sterling Restaurant sits at its base. Food is all freshly prepared and there’s a great range of wine and drinks to accompany a meal or just to complement good conversation. The glass walled, main bar offers plenty of space and great views out onto the concourse and the impressive architecture and unique design make The Sterling a trendy spot in the centre of the City. We’ll be sampling some of their delicious menu at the event.
