ABOUT NGA

Newington Green Alliance (NGA) is a small charity working to build strong, deeply connected community that reduces suspicion and mistrust, crime and loneliness and improve mental health, happiness, educational success, community financial strength, and mutual support.

PROJECT

Among the ways NGA can bring people together and help them to connect with and understand each other better is by running local events. The local events we plan to run over the coming months include:

Conferences on relevant local topics such as gentrification, classism, and loneliness.
Community work days where diverse local people work side by side to improve the area for everyone
Intercultural food events where everyone brings a dish their grandmother might have made and cross-cultural connections are made
Role

Planning and designing the structure of events

Work with the Fundraising Team to secure greater funding for local community-building events
Seek out and develop partnerships with local organisations and other groups
Select and organise event venues
Manage and facilitate events
Setup and take-down of events
Volunteers must be prepared to commit to at least six months of working with NGA. Time required will vary depending on the specific responsibilities of each volunteer and the time relative to a conference. On average, we estimate that each volunteer will need to devote 2-3 hours per week to the work of the Conference Team.
