More than a training day
The delegates need practical tools that can help them translate what they have learnt during the course into their everyday practice. Many training programmes for small to mid scale organisations are not always mindful of the fact that they have limited human and financial resources available to them. The course will signpost individuals to places they can get further support and help with developing their organisations and/or projects. Our workshops will always end with a practical “what next” look at how delegates can take their learning forward.
About the trainer
Wendy Smithers, founder and co-director of the hub, Wendy has been busy running and developing the hub's training programme over the last 18 months and also leads on finding partners and sponsors for the hub's own projects. Wendy, along with her co-director Julia Payne, has been responsible for building the hub over a period of 6 years into a brand associated with innovation, credibility and high quality learning. Wendy is currently working on fundraising and organisational development consultancies for a number of clients and delivering training programmes across the UK for a wide range of arts and community groups. Wendy’s passion is enabling others with knowledge she has gained as an active fundraiser and sharing her up-to-date knowledge of fundraising. Wendy whole-heartedly embraces the hub philosophy of ensuring advice is honest and of practical use to those who need it, delivering training and consultancy that can be immediately used in day-to-day practice rather than manuals that gather dust on shelves.
Before setting up the hub with Julia in 2002, Wendy worked as a freelance consultant for Wimbledon Theatre, Orange Tree Theatre and Riverhouse for eighteen months. Previously Wendy was Development Manager at the Barbican Centre from 1996-2001, working across a variety of cross-arts festivals. This followed a two year spell at Classic FM, the UK's leading national commercial radio station.
