Connecting Communities events are back!
Our Connecting Communities events are returning this summer from 5th June to 28th August, bringing free, local events to communities across Northern Ireland! These gatherings are all about bringing people together—to connect volunteers, share ideas, and spark positive change in local areas. Whether you're looking to get more involved in your community or hoping to pick up practical tips and inspiration, these events are the perfect starting point.
What to Expect:
- Discover inspiring local projects
- Explore funding opportunities
- Share your own ideas and learn from others
- Meet local organisations like Volunteer Now, True Harvest Seeds, Radius Housing, The Conservation Volunteers, and Ulster GAA
- Connect with your local Keep Northern Ireland Beautiful Field Officer and learn how they can support your group
We’ll also be hosting seed swaps, offering planting advice, discussing funding options, and giving attendees a chance to win a luxury hotel stay!
Come along, get inspired, and be part of something meaningful in your community.
