Coffee & Connect for Fundraisers

Coffee & Connect is a networking opportunity for Somerset-based fundraisers and anyone responsible for generating income for their community group or organisation.

These bi-monthly sessions, provide an opportunity to share knowledge, discuss challenges and support each other in navigating the complexities of fundraising, particularly in these challenging times.

Our goal is to create a collaborative space where you can build your skills, exchange resources, and strengthen the local fundraising community.

Where are we this month?

This month, we're in-person only at YMCA Taunton.

Whilst together, we will discuss potential venues and locations for future gatherings as we plot to make our way around the county.

We want to hear from you! Let us know what your 'hot topics' are when booking so that we can discuss them during this and future sessions.

Who is it for?

This session is aimed at anyone who works for or volunteers with a VCFSE group or organisation in Somerset and has responsibility for fundraising.
