About this Event
Whether you organise litter picks, bring local people together, raise money for community equipment, or have an idea for a small project to improve your neighbourhood, you might be doing more community work than you realise!
This 90-minute workshop will explore how you can develop your activities, the different types of community group structures available (including CICs, CIOs and other incorporated groups), and the steps involved in setting up and running a group. We’ll help you understand the options available and find the right approach for your community project, as well as outline the steps needed to set up, and the essentials needed to run your group.
Refreshments such as tea and coffee will be provided.
** Please note, tickets are available strictly to volunteers and employees working for Voluntary, Community, Faith based groups, Social Enterprises and charitable organisations in Stockport. If you are not part of a VCFSE / charitable organisation then your ticket will be refunded. Please get in touch if you are not sure - [email protected] **
