NCVO Only Connect - England

Only Connect is a visit scheme sponsored by Triodos Bank. It enables you to
visit another voluntary and community organisation (VCO) to learn about their
experience and the key issues to consider when generating earned income.

NB - this scheme applies to organisations based in England only.

They pay £150 for your time and travel to visit another organisation to learn
about how they have diversified their income into trading or public service
delivery or by using loan finance. They will pay the host organisation £200 as a
consultation fee for their time spent with you.

All they ask in return is that you write a report of the visit so they can allow
others to share your learning.

So, if you would like to: Pursue a new trading idea; Learn about the delivery of
public services under contract; Use a loan to increase the capacity of your
organisation to do either of the above; then apply to Only Connect and learn
from colleagues in the sector.
