Happy New Year!
We have lots of new projects and events over the next few months which we’re excited to share with you over the coming weeks.
Social Enterprise Peer Mentoring Hub
The first Social Enterprise Peer Mentoring Hub of 2016 takes place on Thursday 28th January, 10am-12pm, in room LT116, Ashley, Staffordshire University, Leek Road, Stoke-on-Trent, ST4 2DF. (View a map of the campus here.)
Please reserve your free place on the session by booking a ticket on the Eventbrite page.
Whether you’re already running a social enterprise or exploring the idea is one of your resolutions for 2016, The Hub is a great place to network and share ideas, advice and inspiration with like-minded people. Whether you’ve been to the previous Hub sessions or this is your first one, you’re welcome to be there. The Mentor Hub is free to attend and open to all.
This session will be facilitated by Louise Rutherford and Pete Twilley from the Creative Communities Unit.
