RSA Fellowship Social Network

Social Network for RSA Fellows

Next steps for network: "Friday Socials" (starting Friday 4 June, 8.30am) and mentoring programme

We are pleased to let you know that from next Friday morning, 4th June, there will be informal meet-ups for the Social Entrepreneurs network in the Gerard Bar, RSA House from 8.30am to 10.30am.

 

We are calling these "Friday Socials". 

 

If any one wishes to start up similar meetings in your area, please get in touch and we will be happy to support you in this with the help of the local Networks Manager.

 

Following your feedback from the launch event, this will be a chance to meet each other, share learnings, build relationships and discuss your experiences in social enterprise.  It is also intended to be the first step in creating the mentoring programme as part of this network. (However in line with the RSA's charitable aims, this is not a forum for commercial marketing).

 

If you have any skills you are willing to share or you are looking for support from other Fellows as part of the mentoring programme, please could you add a comment below, making it clear if the skill is being offered or wanted. 

 

I hope you find this useful; if you have any feedback please let me know- sarah.tucker@rsa.org.uk

Brill, thanks

for any fellows slightly further North, Unltd have been running a social enterprise mentoring programme nationally for a few years now ("Connect") and as part of that there are regular 'socials' for both mentors and mentees - we're (I'm involved with both Unltd and the RSA) currently looking at how this programme might 'interface' with this network - meeting in Manchester on the evening of thursday 9th Feb.

happy to forward further if you want to contact me direct.

Hi Tim

It was good to meet with you last week. Very interesting and thought provoking debate and hopefully exciting times ahead. I would be interested in an East Midlands group and happy to help support as much as I can.

Hi Sarah

The socials seem a great idea and I wondered whether anyone in the network had experience of virtual networking groups, since with the school run a breakfast in town is unfortunately not an option.

How long do socials go on for - if I arrive at 10 will that be too late?

Best wishes,

Pascale

Hi Pascale

They run until 10.30am normally (though sometimes can be earlier depending on appetite) and they are quite informal so it would be fine to drop in.  If you find yourself near the RSA House one Friday, please do come along and meet some fellow entrepreneurs.

RSA Animate - The Big Erase

For those die-hard RSA Animate fans, here's a little glimpse at what we like to do after all that hard work. That's Andrew 'never knowingly-not-wearing-a-stripey-top' Park - the illustrator extraordinaire behind the RSA Animate images. For all those who've asked about prints and PDFs - they are available to download and buy on Cognitive Media's website. Cognitivemedia.co.uk
