HCN Open Mic

 Registration is closed for this event
Our first Zoom Hastings Community Network Open Mic event took place in April. It was a well attended networking event with a broad range of local organisations taking part to share resources and make connections for future collaborative working. It was a great opportunity for people to get together to speak about how they have adapted their services in the pandemic and how they will be working in the future. Due to the popularity of the event, we are holding another Zoom Open Mic in July. To claim one of the 3 minute 'open mic' slots to share an issue or initiative please follow the link: www.hastingsvoluntaryaction.org.uk/events
