Virtual Network Gathering
10am – 11.30am, Wednesday, 20 October 2021
The past year has been a tough one for businesses. For most, sales decreased and growth has not happened as quickly as projected.
Connect and network with social enterprises at different growth stages to:
- share the positives and challenges of the pandemic so far
- share and/or pick up innovative ideas
- build new connections to collaborate for growth
- learn about new opportunities, including LARCH*
*Local Access Redcar & Cleveland and Hartlepool (LARCH) is a partnership programme between Redcar & Cleveland and Hartlepool. LARCH aims to assist with the long-term sustainability and resilience of charities and social enterprises through a range of support measures and blended finance in form of grants, loans and in-kind support.
