North East Forum

ella Forums is delighted to invite you as our guest to the next North East Forum meeting.

This forum covers the North East England area and is chaired by David Robinson, CEO at Tees Valley YMCA.  David’s background cuts across the charity, public and private sectors and he brings with him senior leadership experience in the fields of youth, learning disability, mental health, employment support, corporate social responsibility and local regeneration. He is an advocate of action learning, supporting his own development and others through connecting with like-minded people.

This small, diverse group of leaders meets on a regular basis once a month creating a network of impartial advisors to each other.  The meetings  are either a peer network session or a speaker session. The peer network sessions are facilitated by an experienced chair and include time for ‘action learning’ – a member of the group brings an opportunity, challenge or issue to the session and together, through a structured process, the opportunity, challenge or issue is explored, and possible solutions generated.

Speaker sessions are available to members of all the forums and led by experts on topics identified as being of interest and relevance to members.  Example topics: Brand strategy; Building resilience; Becoming a better leader; Being human in a virtual world; Planning for COVID-19; and Fundraising.

Join us as our guest to see for yourself first-hand the ella Forums process.
