We have found the networking opportunities valuable, and I’m grateful for the support offered — Member reflection, 2025
Exclusive to members of Befriending Networks, this event is about peer support and connection on a range of leadership challenges and opportunities. The event is chaired by our CEO and will balance presentations, Q&A time, and peer to peer networking opportunities. If you are curious about sectoral challenges, innovation, trends and issues this event is for you. The Forum replaces our previous ‘leaders and managers network’, and with thanks to funding from The Stafford Trust will meet in January, April, September and November 2027 with guest speakers.
The session will be hosted on Zoom – your confirmation email will contain the link to join.
New for 2027, The Befriending Leadership Forum is a quarterly online membership-only event for those leading, managing or coordinating befriending services. We will come together for peer support, connection, questions and answers to key issues and challenges facing the sector. At each forum we will be joined by subject-experts who will share insight, experience and knowledge.
These events are hosted on Zoom and are free and open to members of Befriending Networks. We ask all our attendees to come online prepared to discuss with others, listen and learn. If you have a particular question or topic you would like the group to discuss, please contact the event facilitator in advance to add it to our agenda.
Our Guest Speakers are to be confirmed, and will be drawn from funders, fundraising consultants, and fundraisers.
Please get in touch with the event facilitator, susan@befriending.co.uk.
