The Somerset VCFSE Insights Hub is a new platform built to support community action, strategic planning, and funding applications.

By providing national, regional and local information all in one place, the Hub will make it easier for you to write strong funding bids, support new service developments, identify opportunities for partnership working and clearly demonstrate your impact to funders.

Join us for this hour-long workshop, which will offer:

• A walkthrough of the Insights Hub platform, showcasing its features and how it can be used to strengthen your organisation’s work
• A deep dive into the Local Insight mapping tool, which allows you to visualise and extract data relevant to your area — ideal for grant writing, research, and service planning
• Real-world examples of how the platform is already supporting organisations across Somerset
• An opportunity to ask questions and shape future developments of the platform

Whether you’re looking to better understand local needs, evidence your impact, or collaborate more effectively, this session will equip you with the tools and knowledge to make the most of the Insights Hub.

Who should attend?

Places at this workshop are available for staff and volunteers from charities, community groups, social enterprises, and anyone working in the VCFSE sector in Somerset.

Can’t make this date? We’re hosting another information session on Tuesday 9 December.
