Upcoming Events

Selling Added Value

Thursday 11 February 2010

Selling added value (SAV) uses Social Return On Investment (SROI) to map the added value and impact that is achieved by a project or activity and produces qualitative, quantative and financial results that are relevant to the buyer as the key stakeholder. Normally, this implies a scope/materiality/judgement focusing on customer/buyer.

Community Interest Group

Monday 15 February 2010

The Community Interest Group (CIG) is an opportunity for anyone working in the voluntary / community sector to come along and talk to others about what they are doing. We all take a turn to explain our current work, then there's time to talk over what we've heard, or items of interest, to ask for help if necessary or to get to know new people working in a similar area.

Avoid duplication of effort, use other people's expertise and make new allies. And it's informal and friendly. Everyone's welcome.

Meetings are roughly monthly and circulate around North Lincolnshire, and the newsletter issued after each meeting contains the news from the meeting, plus from others who couldn't attend, and goes to everyone on the mailing list. Get in touch to be included, whether or not you can attend meetings.
