Thank you to everyone who attended February’s CEFS Networking event on 17th February.
A special thanks to our guest speakers Janet Down of SoLO Life Opportunities and Sallie Ryan at Social Enterprise West Midlands.
Janet spoke about Board Development – finding, appointing and working with trustees effectively. Below you can find a number of handouts Janet has kindly shared. Please do check these documents for accuracy and take advice on their appropriateness for your own needs.
Sallie introduced everyone to Social Enterprise West Midlands (SEWM) – the business network for social enterprise and social value in the region. More details about SEWM, membership benefits, events and useful resources can be found on their website – www.socialenterprisewm.org.uk.
