Somerset’s social enterprises are invited to come together to this highly interactive online network event which puts YOU and YOUR concerns centre stage (if you want... you can always lurk and listen in on discussions that's fine too!)

It is a great chance to meet like-minded people and share your successes and challenges in the current situation. It is also a great opportunity to connect with others, share ideas and explore opportunities for moving forward.

• Share exciting ways you have adapted in the current climate
• Discuss the challenges you have faced with loss of income and how you have coped - or not coped! ALL experiences are so important to share and learn from each other
• Have you used any closure time to reshape how your organisation will operate in the future - has the current situation made you change future plans?
• Do you need help? Do you not know what to do? Come and join in, ask questions from your peers, listen to others experiences

This online event will include small break out discussions with feedback and support/advice for challenges faced.

It is free to Somerset Social Enterprise Network members and non-members are all welcome. Whether you are an experienced social entrepreneur, an enthusiastic start-up or are thinking of setting up we hope you will join us.

Booking: this is a free event but registration is needed. The link will be sent to you after booking to join the Zoom webinar.
