We were delighted to attend the recent Knowledge Event hosted at Shaw House,  Newbury where over 75 local charities, voluntary organisations, and key stakeholders from across local government, health, and education came together for a day of learning, networking, and collaboration.

The morning was packed with insightful seminars led by expert local partners, covering a wide range of timely topics—from the role of Artificial Intelligence in the voluntary sector to practical HR guidance. These sessions provided us with valuable tools and fresh perspectives to help strengthen our organisation and better serve our community.

Beyond the learning, the event offered a fantastic opportunity to connect with fellow charities and sector leaders. We left feeling inspired and more connected to the wider voluntary network in West Berkshire.

We’d like to thank Volunteer Centre West Berkshire for organising such a meaningful and energising event. It was a powerful reminder of the strength and breadth of delivery within our local voluntary sector.
