Cracking the Code: Understanding Government Contracts
Are you a Black and Minoritised Ethnic (BME) charity or social enterprise based in England? Have you been seeking opportunities to enhance your procurement skills, but have minimal or zero experience of tendering in the public sector?
Our 90-minute free webinar is your ideal first step to conquer government contracts. You will gain insights on the supply chain process from an experienced social entrepreneur and a commissioner, and understand what they’re looking for in a strong bid.
The deadline to register is 5pm on Sunday 2nd June 2024.
Training Workshops with Buddle
In partnership with Buddle, we are delighted to offer a free 1 hour session on Raising Money (15th May 2024) and Finance Management (29th May 2024) respectively.
Buddle training courses are short, free training sessions that will develop your knowledge and understanding and ultimately will help you develop and support your club, group or organisation. These courses are available to individuals 16 years of age or above, based in England.
These training opportunities are funded by Sport England to ensure they are free to attend and accessible to everyone (we anticipate that the cost per person would be at least £25).
Information Session with YoungMinds
We are hosting a webinar with YoungMinds, a national charity advocating for young people's mental health. The aim of this session is to raise awareness about the services available to parents, carers, grandparents but also to organisations working with families, children and young people and adults with children.
The deadline for registering for this session is 5pm on Tuesday 14th May 2024.
