NET Connect 08: September 2025

NET Connect: bringing together North East Together members to connect, grow and nurture our relationships

Our regular short online gatherings give space for NET members and networks friends to meet, talk and share for mutual support and to build community. We'll use guided networking to help us have a great conversation together...welcoming new members and reconnecting with existing members.

Our 2025 events are in February and September.

"Relationships are built at the speed of trust, and social change happens at the speed of relationships."

About North East Together

North East Together is the network for social change leadership in the north east.

Our collective mission here at NET is to create the conditions, and platform for, collaboration to become the norm in the north east and to nurture a healthier social change system. Together we can do this.

We believe that bringing people together to tackle social injustice will create positive change - in our communities, organisations and the social systems we live and work within. Our network offers mutual support, enables collaboration and inspires social leaders.

We offer a series of dynamic network events; whole day events, self-organised collaborative working groups; pathways into coaching; and independent social change events. It’s for leaders from the voluntary, charity, social enterprise, education, public and private sectors. It’s for experienced, new and future leaders of organisations, work, and ideas.

North East Together is hosted by Yes We Can and is a collaboration between Yes We Can and Newcastle University Business School. We’re grateful for the support both organisations give to North East Together.
