10GM - A joint venture to support the voluntary, community and social enterprise sector in Greater Manchester

VCSE Future Leaders Programme

For Future VCSE Leaders.

The VCSE Future Leaders Programme aims to build confidence and skills, and nurture new talent, within Greater Manchester’s VCSE sector. The programme will be co-designed with VCSE emerging leaders themselves and will be tailored specifically to meet their/the sector’s needs.

We've kicked off our 2024 VCSE Future Leaders Programme! 

The programme for aspiring VCSE leaders.
Are you keen to supercharge your skills, knowledge, and confidence to bring about social change?
Do you have a sense of purpose, vision, and commitment?

Are you working, volunteering or embedded within a small or medium-sized VCSE sector organisation or group in Greater Manchester?

Maybe this describes you, or maybe you can see these qualities and future potential in someone you work alongside in the sector? 

What is it?

Our VCSE Future Leaders Programme runs from January to June 2024 and aims to build confidence and skills, and nurture new talent, within Greater Manchester’s VCSE sector. It will be facilitated by Claire Ebrey from On the Level and Ed Moss from The Space to Thrive, with input from other trainers and facilitators. The programme will be co-designed with VCSE emerging leaders themselves and will be tailored specifically to meet their/the sector’s needs. It will include:

 

Engaging in workshops to develop skills and confidence 

 

One-to-one support for emerging leaders – for example through personal coaching

 

Access to a £750 financial contribution to costs, paid to the participant’s organisation or group

Who’s it for?

This programme is specifically for people who are embedded within smaller or medium-sized VCSE organisations/groups – this could be as a paid staff member, or in volunteering or activist roles. Some of the qualities you may have include: 

 

A sense of purpose and vision.

 

A strong motivation to learn, grow and develop their skills and knowledge, to challenge inequalities and bring about social change.

 

Self-awareness, curiosity, and an openness to learning.

10GM is committed to tackling longstanding, inequity, and underrepresentation of some people in VCSE leadership roles. Therefore, we want this programme to include people who may experience barriers to progressing into senior and leadership positions within organisations. People underrepresented may include people experiencing racial inequalities, disabled people, women, and people who identify as LGBTQ+. We actively encourage applicants from members of these groups/communities and all others.

The deadline to register for this programme has now passed. Applications received after the deadline will not be considered.
