Social Enterprise Annual Conference

Resilience – Thriving in Times of Change

Change is coming at us faster than ever. For those of us in the VCSE sector, resilience isn’t just an extra strength, it’s the foundation that keeps us going, adapting, and making a difference no matter what life throws our way.

That’s why this year’s conference is all about resilience – how to build it, live it, and use it to make your organisation stronger than ever.

Here’s what you can look forward to:

Inspiring Keynote Speakers
Hear from people who’ve been right where you are, building something with purpose, facing the tough times, and coming out the other side even stronger. They’ll share the honest stories, the lightbulb moments, and the lessons they’ll never forget.

Connections that Count
Meet like-minded social entrepreneurs, charity leaders and change makers from across Kent and Medway. Swap ideas, share your experiences, and maybe spark a collaboration that could change everything – plus enjoy a great lunch while overlooking the sea.

Real Life Case Studies
Learn from the latest participants of the Thanet Social Enterprise Boost programme. They’ll show you what’s worked for them, what hasn’t, and how Social Enterprise Kent has helped them grow and adapt.

Looking Ahead
As we celebrate 40 years of Social Enterprise Kent, we’ll reflect on our legacy and spotlight our Social Impact Gateway – a powerful platform that’s already opening new doors for collaboration, funding, and growth across our sector.

This day is for you if you’re:

• Part of a non-profit, charity, or social enterprise in Kent or Medway
• An impact investor or CSR professional
• A policymaker or academic working in social change
• Or simply someone who cares deeply about making our communities better

Grab your ticket today and let’s spend a day learning, connecting, and building the resilience we all need.
