Come and network at our free business breakfast event on Wednesday 13 December. We’re hosting this at our new Sandwell Start-Up Hub, alongside Sandwell College and the Black Country Chamber of Commerce. It will have a social value focus.
Our third Get Connected in Sandwell event is called ‘Social Value Matters’. Two special guest speakers will talk about the importance and potential impact of social value in our communities, and how it can help your business when bidding for work.
Michael Wragg is our Senior Social Value Officer here on the Business Growth Team. He’ll tell you what social value means for Sandwell.
And Kim Fuller is Growing Participation and Volunteering Mentor at SCVO. Kim will take a practical look at social value, corporate social responsibility, and employer-supported volunteering.
At the free event, you will also learn about funded courses, grants and business support available for your organisation.
Bacon, sausage or veggie option?
You will also get a free breakfast (with bacon, sausage or vegetarian options). And, of course, the opportunity to network with other businesses.
The breakfast event is taking place at Jack Judge House in Oldbury, from 7.30am to 9.30am. There is free parking available nearby in Sainsbury’s car park for a maximum of three hours. (If you need to stay longer, download the Horizon parking app and book your space.)
When you arrive, please enter the building via the rear entrance and press the second floor intercom for a council officer to let you in.
Why not bring your laptop, stay on afterwards and work from the Sandwell Start-Up Hub? You just need to book your desk:
