Voluntary and community network meetings
These meetings will provide a regular space for the Council, the local voluntary and community sector and wider partners operating in Wandsworth to come together.
It's an opportunity to network, share updates, discuss and collaborate on key policy, strategic and service areas. The aim is to build an even stronger community network across Wandsworth.
Details of the next voluntary and community network meeting will be available soon.
