Our portfolio charities have the chance to connect with other charity leaders and people that can help take your organisation to the next level.
Peer Connection Group
Join our WhatsApp group of 100+ charity leaders to connect, share experiences and funding opportunities, discuss challenges, and problem-solve together.
Peer Chats
Our Peer Chats series is shaped by our portfolio charities, offering a space to connect and share insights on topics and challenges that matter most to you.
Some examples of past sessions include:
- Converting from a CIC to a CIO
- Using CRM systems to maximise efficiency
- Creating and maintaining a happy and healthy team in the absence of a mythical money tree
Peer Dinners
Our dinners offer a fun and relaxed opportunity to meet other senior leaders from other charities that we have backed. It’s a great way to share advice, discuss challenges, and make useful connections for peer support and learning. These dinners take place across the UK and, as our portfolio grows, we hope to host them in even more locations.
Bigger Get Togethers
At least once a year, we host larger events in London, bringing together our portfolio charities, friends of The Fore, and others passionate about supporting small charities. These events are a great opportunity to meet other charity leaders from across the UK, and to leave with new ideas, insights, and connections to help your organisation thrive.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who can access the networking opportunities?
The Peer Connection Group is designed for our charity leaders. Any member of your team is welcome to access our other opportunities, but the peer dinners tend to be especially valuable for senior leaders and trustees.
How much does it cost to access networking opportunities?
The Peer Connection Group, the Peer Chats, and the bigger gatherings are free. For the peer dinners, we ask for a £10 contribution, and The Fore covers the rest of the bill.
