Community organisations need relevant, timely and appropriate support and guidance in order to grow and strengthen. This takes many forms, from direct one-to-one support through to group training and attendance at network events. We also produce a monthly newsletter and funding alert, straight to your email inbox. Sign up on our News page.

Support Cambridgeshire partners can provide advice on a range of subjects including:

• how to start and run a community group
• health and safety in the workplace
• trustee support
• working with the media
• understanding the implications of social media
• compacts
• campaigning
• how to gain voice and influence
• funding
• representation
• how to run or manage a community facility

Please read our case studies and check out our fact sheets. You’ll find a wide range of other information via the tabs at the top of the page. If you can’t find what you need, please get in touch.

Network events

Network events are designed to help community organisations gain knowledge and expertise. They bring people together to discuss best practice, challenges and potential opportunities. Network events may often have a guest speaker, or focus on one particular subject such as funding or volunteering and events take place across Cambridgeshire throughout the year.

Funding fairs

Support Cambridgeshire will be delivering two funding fairs through 2017. These fairs will bring together those looking for funding, and those who have funds to give.

For information on the type and range of advice, or your nearest, next network event or funding fair, please contact info@supportcambridgeshire.org.uk
