Charity Hangouts are back! ⚡️ After a brief Summer hiatus, The Social Society is back showcasing some of the Southeast's most impactful people and projects. For those of you who know me, you know I LOVE 💙 connecting people through these magical events and after a summer of nothing but restful and slow, the inner social squiggle fest that is my noggin is so READY for this event. ✨ A masshoosive thank you to our long-term community partner PLATF9RM for creating such a delightful space to house our charities and local yocals, we love you. ⭐️ Fancy helping some epic humans? ⭐️ Want to hob knob with some really cool locals doing good shizz in your city? ⭐️ Fancy just coming along for a nosey and having a chin wag? We are here for all of the above and then some! This month we hear from the totally wonderful Emma Anastasi, The Survivors Network and the southeast's largest arts charity Same Sky. I am beyond excited to welcome both new and familiar faces back into this wonderful space. Grab your ticket in the comments below 👇 Helen Race Fiona Gray #charityevents #brighton #community

Had the absolute BEST day onsite with The Social Society yesterday! ☀ A fabulous festival team day for TrustedHousesitters with charities like Therapy Dogs Nationwide, Conversation Over Borders and Battersea Cats and Dogs - talks, workshops, doggy life drawing, festival fun and lawn games all in a beautiful festival site in Sussex.🌞🐶 An absolute honour to be part of this and see what Toni Finnimore has created with The Social Society - what a POWERHOUSE! 💙  #eventprofs #outdoorevents #teamday #dogs

Team days with the trees 🌳 The site is open. The tents are up. The summer of fun starts here. Here’s to a summer of doing good, appreciating the value of time, and connecting people with our signature Festival team days . I 💙 my job #volunteering #community #nature

There ain't no feeling like connecting people together for a good cause 🌱 Shining a light on the wonderful Toni Finnimore and her amazing work hosting our ‘charity hangouts’ here at PLATF9RM. Happening every 3 months, these incredible events allow you a space to offer up your skills to local charities, or find someone who’s able to help with yours. As part of our commitment to this amazing cause, we volunteer our space to Toni to help enable charities and conversations that enrich our community and the lives of others. If you want to join along for any of our upcoming hangouts, keep an eye out for our upcoming cultural programme or view it on our website through the link below. https://lnkd.in/ettZx-gd

" We have been absolutely delighted to have Pippa Aldrich expertise and support around SEO and marketing for our new website. Pippa's audit identified some clear actions that she has also kindly volunteered to carry out for us such as developing some dynamic campaigns using our non-profit Google Ads account. She is also helping us set up our Google Tag Manager and understand how this works. This is the kind of expert support that really makes a difference for small to medium-sized charities like Amaze who do not have the resources to pay for SEO & marketing but who desperately need it to build their brand awareness and raise more funds. Thanks, Pippa, and The Social Society." Thanks for the feedback Charlotte Moroney. The rocket fuel of volunteering is indeed what we see here!

All hail the Hay Bale Yep, you heard 👂 I sat on one of these beautiful bundles of scratchy straw again last week with the BIGGEST SMILE on my face. 😍 Beaming I tell you. The bird song game was high. The sun was in the sky. I was talking about all things farmland and sound systems and people. You see the tides are turning my friends. People are where it's at. ( * Always has been IMO * ) Away from the office. Connecting over hay bales. Chit chatting. Doing good. Taking the time. Oh did I mention bird song? Beautiful bird song. Impactful, meaningful connections where people get to help those that need it most and disconnect from all the external shizz. I can't wait for a summer of shizz in a field. If you and your teams want to join us, we may just be able to help #socialclub4socialgood #teamdays #volunteering #events

Last night I HotFooted it over to the The Social Society event that was held up high in the Moda McEwan Building in Edinburgh. Hats off to you Toni Finnimore for getting this event off the ground. It's no mean feat when you are based in Brighton, running a networking event at the other end of the UK. The panel had the brilliant Elaine Brown from The Edinburgh Remakery as well as Sue from Music in Hospitals & Care and Katarzyna from The Meadows Festival. A good night topped off with wonderful views over the rooftops of the beautiful city that is Edinburgh. Good to see you there Sarah Geoghegan - drinks and snacks on me next time.... #socialsocietyforgood #meerkathappen #volunteering #charity
