What Are We Offering in Thanet?
Kent Coast Volunteering is running a series of Network and Knowledge events and Best Practice Training sessions on volunteering topics, as part of the Community Champions Programme.
Who is it for? It is aimed at people working (or volunteering) for charities, community groups, CICs, who work directly with volunteers, ideally, but not necessarily, in a supervisory-type role.
What’s the Difference between Best Practice Training and Networking and Knowledge?
Our Best Practice Training are information sessions covering, for example, the processes, paperwork, rules and legislation around each topic with optional networking at the start and end.
Our Networking and Knowledge sessions are peer sharing and learning sessions, sometimes with speakers showing what works for them, but largely for peers to support each other by sharing their experiences and knowledge, successes and challenges on an issue.
KCV is proud to deliver the Community Champions Programme in Thanet, designed to strengthen and support local charities and social enterprises. We are funded by Thanet District Council as part of the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
