Community Alliance Summer Conference: Together for Tomorrow
Friday, 27th June 2025,
12pm – 3pm
At Nigel Copping Community Building,
Stanstead Abbotts, Hertfordshire, SG12 8GA
Join us for an inspiring afternoon at this year’s Summer Conference on Friday, 27th June, from 12 noon to 3pm at the Nigel Copping Community Building in Stanstead Abbotts.
Change is inevitable but how we respond makes all the difference in an organisation’s survival and future.
This year’s 2025 theme ‘Together for Tomorrow,’ “Building resilience together, driving collective impact,” sheds light on the idea that working collectively is better than surviving on your own and how we as a Community Voluntary Service (CVS) can support and strengthen you with our core offer. Let’s collaborate and not isolate!
This engaging afternoon will discuss topics around:
- Opportunities for the voluntary sector to stay ahead of change and how to prepare
- How organisations can be successful and use innovation to their advantage
- Sustainable income methods to prolong your existence.
