    Are you are small community group in Reading? Come along to our next Small Groups’ Forum on Tuesday 28 January 2025 to hear about support, funding and networking for smaller groups like yours. The session is informal, friendly and catered specifically for smaller groups as we know the challenges and support you need can be different to that of larger groups.

    Who are small groups:

    • Mainly volunteer led
    • With a gross annual income below £50K

    If you don’t think you fit this category but still identify as a small group, you’re welcome to come along. You just need to ensure your group is offering some activities or services in Reading.

    The January session will cover:

    • Tips on engaging your community and sharing responsibility on your committee
    • Understanding charity status/registration
    • Funding opportunities for small groups
    • Networking with each other

    This is a friendly, informal session hosted by Herjeet Vass from the RVA team, so don’t worry if you haven’t attended one of these sessions before. Refreshments will be provided.

    If you have any access needs (such as a visual or physical impairment), just let us know in advance by emailing training@rva.org.uk and we will do our best to accommodate your needs.

    Free event, but please book online at www.eventbrite.co.uk to confirm your place. We hope to see you there.
