Hello,
This meeting is an online space for VCSE organisations in Manchester to share their asks and offers for venue spaces in Manchester.
It is also a forum space for sharing queries or experiences around running a community venue in the VCSE sector.
The December meeting will be facilitated by the Spaces of Hope and Connection Organisational Development Worker, Pollyanna.
The agenda will follow the usual format, with a round of introductions, and space for sharing issues, insights, and asks.
