Cambridge Network event 11.02.20

Cambridge Network Breakfast event

Yesterday I had the pleasure of attending a Cambridge Network event, the topic

'Can your business drive social change?'

Great turnout of individuals and companies looking to make a difference in their community

It was well attended by both local (Cambridgeshire) businesses and charities, and individuals like myself, all with the common goal of understanding how we could make a difference in the lives of others.

This event obviously aligns very closely with what I'm trying to do with my #roadtrip4charity project and it was truly inspiring to be in a room filled with likeminded people.

Cambridge Community Foundation

Michael O'Toole, Chief Executive of Cambridge Community Foundation gave a great talk about the foundation's work and aims in Cambridgeshire and how businesses could help the foundation to help charity and community work in the region.

Can your business drive social change?

If you are a Cambridgeshire based individual or business that would like to get involved in supporting the efforts to end the inequality in the region, please have a look at how you can 'Become a friend of CCF'

Project reminder

Just a reminder, if you are a small charity in the East Anglian area, and could benefit from free photography services and images, please get in contact to discuss your requirements and whether it's a good fit for the project.

Please do be aware, however, that whilst I'm happy to travel to you, I will need my travel expenses covered at the standard 0.45p per mile rate. I genuinely hope charities will understand that whilst I'm absolutely eager to help with free photography, I cannot also be out of pocket to provide the service.
