Create cross sector connections for your non-profit

Joining the Connect Reading network gives your charity access and connection to organisations from every sector. This helps boost the profile of your work, facilitates connections and partnership plus raises awareness of the needs you address through your work. In addition to our regular networking and learning sessions, our CEO sits on numerous local and regional strategic boards speaking up for our members and raising local issues.

Yes! We facilitate lots of connections between our members, from every sector. Part of our Connection GDPR Policy ensures that when we make those connections, the person receiving the connection request is bcc’d. We can help you hone your intros and signpost you to other great resources when seeking to make more of these connections.

Our commitment to ‘local’ runs through all we do, and the sliding scale of membership makes membership as accessible as possible. So if your charity or non-profit is part of a national charity, you will be charged as a national charity unless you have a separate charity number. This ensures we are fair and can support micro charities or community groups as equitably as we support those with more resources.

ESG is Environment, Social & Governance; formerly known as CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility). ESG refers to the 3 key factors when measuring the sustainability and ethical impact of a business. Many companies refer to these as 3 pillars, and therefore choose to report in these areas.
