Our impact

We have a small team of business connectors who work across Cheshire, Warrington and Halton. They use their knowledge and expertise to understand the aspirations of charities and agree a plan to move forward. The business connectors then find a business or a skilled individual with the relevant skills to support the charity.

“Thank you so much for inviting me along to the new Aspiring Leadership Programme – what a great initiative by Cheshire Connect. The first session has already opened my eyes to the type of leader / manager I am and what I will need to work on in the future. The session plans and guest speakers that have been booked on the course will provoke some very meaningful discussions. The attendees have also been carefully selected to allow a diverse collection of thoughts and styles to be involved and I feel privileged to be part of such a stimulating peer group. I am very excited about the year ahead.”
