Does your organisation work in a community space or serve a particular neighbourhood in Bristol? The Communities of Place Network (CoP) is a great way to talk to others who work in similar ways, with the potential to learn from each other as well as amplifying your voice. 

The Communities for Equalities Network (C4E), developed by Voscur and Stand Against Racism and Inequality (SARI), is network for organisations and groups in Bristol’s Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise (VCSE) sector who work to support equalities communities, and/or who are themselves equalities-led. 

This network, formerly known as “Sector Leaders”, aims to bring together senior level staff working across different areas of expertise within the VCSE Sector. We are particularly keen to involve those who represent existing networks or alliances, to get the broadest range of voices in the room. 

Do you want to hear about how the new leadership at Bristol City Council will be working in partnership with the VCSE Sector?

Our upcoming Forum offers an opportunity to hear about this, as well as how the sector is working together, and information on some of the larger collaborations happening locally. We will also be inviting attendees to share the challenges and opportunities that organisations have been encountering during 2024.

Do you volunteer with a grassroots LGBTQ+ community group? Does your charity or social enterprise provide services for the LGBTQ+ community?

Join us at the fourth Bristol LGBTQ+ Partnership event!

This event focuses on community and collaboration. Come along to meet other local LGBTQ+ groups and build connections, make partnerships, and think about new ways we can work together. 

Join us to meet new people and find out about all of the amazing groups in the LGBTQ+ Partnership. We'll be providing food and drinks including tea, sandwiches and cakes!
