About This Event

Facilitators based in Sheffield or South Yorkshire are invited to meet at The Circle on 15 October 2026. The gathering includes a short facilitated session, announcements, and networking. It serves as a community event to share work and opportunities among local facilitators.

If you're a facilitator and based in the Sheffield or South Yorkshire region, why not come along and meet other people who do what you do?

Join us at this latest #FacilitateSheffield catch up!

We're a friendly and talented bunch, who live or work in or around Sheffield.

We meet every two months as a community in Sheffield City Centre. It's a super simple format: one of us facilitates a short session to showcase our style and practice in a safe space. We do some announcements and share updates relevant to facilitation. And then we network - chat, catch up, drink coffee and enjoy each others' company.

Our purpose is to get to know eachother, share work and opportunities, learn from each other, collaborate and raise the profile of the many fantastic facilitators in our great city.

Whether you're an experienced facilitator or just getting started on your facilitation journey, this network is for you!

It's free to attend, but please only book a ticket if you're sure you want to come along - places are limited and we always sell out, so last-minute drop outs are a real shame.

This session, our facilitator is Louise Dore, Founder of Serendipaceratops Services. Louise will be introducing us to a exciting new framework...

We'll be going through a research-based methodology for generating and developing innovative and collaborative projects, CLEAR IDEAS (https://sheffield.ac.uk/management/research/research-impact-and-knowledge-exchange/clear-ideas-increasing-creativity-and-innovation-skills-improve). Come and learn how to facilitate the process, and you might even kickstart a new collaboration for yourself!

Who’s This For?

This meetup is perfect for anyone who:

Is keen to learn simple but powerful facilitation techniques.

Is looking for fresh ways to tackle challenges.

Enjoys connecting with others and sharing ideas in a supportive space.

About us:

We’re Helen, Angel and Hannah, the co-leads of #FacilitateSheffield, and we’re passionate about creating spaces where people can connect, learn, and grow. Whether you’re new to facilitation, curious or a seasoned pro, we’d love to have you join us!

About this month's facilitator:

Louise Dore is a qualified coach and experienced trainer and facilitator. She has a lovely day job as a research manager at the University of Sheffield, helping to turn brilliant ideas into realistic projects, and also recently launched a freelance business, Serendipaceratops Services, to offer her skills to other sectors.
