About this event

On Tuesday 23 May we were delighted to hold an event primarily for East Sussex based charities at the iconic De La Warr Pavilion.

On arrival from 6.00pm we enjoyed an initial period of open networking. We were pleased that Andrew Blackman, Lord Lieutenant of East Sussex provided some opening words before we entered some ’roundtable’ discussion led by our experienced volunteer mentors, covering some of the common themes we encounter within our 1:1 mentoring.

We also heard from our event sponsors; Ashdown Hurrey, accountants and Hastings Direct, Insurers both of whom have been generous in supporting this event financially. Additionally, we are grateful to our marketing partner, Youbiquity Ltd who captured some great images of the evening.

For the final formal part of the event, we met with three of our previous mentees, to hear about their success stories following a mentoring placement. Following the meeting, attendees enjoyed a culinary treat with some lovely food provided by the venue.
