About This Event

Are you a freelancer or consultant working in the Charity sector in North East England? Join us for a co-working/slow networking day. This informal, relaxed get-together is all about co-working and slow networking for charity freelancers. Whether you're tackling your to-do list, brainstorming ideas, or simply looking to share experiences with like-minded professionals, you'll find a supportive and welcoming community here. We host these bi-monthly events in One Strawberry Lane, Newcastle, on the second Thursday, from 9:30am to 4pm. Drop in for the whole day or just a couple of hours - whatever works best for you! We're at the back of the cafe behind a wooden partition, see the photo below. Here's a loose agenda, but rest assured, it is definitely informal to make space for chats and co-working. -- 9.30am Start 10am Introduce yourself 12pm Lunch and chat around a topic 4pm Close -- It's free to come, but we do ask that you book a spot so we can plan ahead and make sure there’s space for everyone. So, grab your laptop, your notebook, or just yourself, and come along for a day of connection, collaboration, and good chat. We can’t wait to see you there!

Big thanks to One Strawberry Lane (https://www.onestrawberrylane.com/) for their support by providing this fantastic space for free. -- Support these meetups with Kofi These meetups will always be free to come to, but they do take a bit of admin time to organise, and I don’t get any client work done on meet-up days (I am too busy gassing!). A few people have asked about supporting them, so I’ve set up a Ko‑fi page (https://ko-fi.com/carriebrookes?utm_source=eventbrite&utm_medium=evenbrite_July&utm_campaign=charity_freelancers_july&utm_content=charity_freelancers_eventbrite_july) where you can buy me a virtual coffee if you’d like to (or tea actually, as I hate coffee!). Completely optional, always appreciated. You'll find us in behind this partitioned space at the very back of the cafe.
