About this event

If you've heard the terms CIO, CIC, Community Benefit Society and felt bewildered - or you'd like to understand the difference between running a charity and a social enterprise, this session is for you.

What does your organisation need to be? What are the options for you either as a group or a small team?

the different types of structures for organisations and community groups
the benefits and essentials of each
informal networks and groups, and the pros and cons
including climate, wellbeing and the environment in your group's organisation
services that can support you going forward

Perhaps you're in the thick of these questions and options already in your group, or you want to generally understand more about structures and models out there for the future. Whatever, you're welcome. There will be time for questions and general discussion.

This session is led by professional coach and fundraisier Ruth Knagg. Ruth works as a coach for Edventure's Future Shed, supporting individuals and groups with their needs, ideas and aspirations.

Who is this for:

anyone in Frome and surrounding communities
anyone aged 16 years+
