Hi, Share and Repair are seeking a new home this year. This has been initiated by the need for our current premises to have a new roof, but we have realised that our current space is hampering our growth as an organisation due to its configuration. If anyone knows of a space that is around 1500-2000 sq ft with a very reasonable rent then please do let us know. We have a couple of options, but are keen to find out about anything that might be available. We'd be excited to share with other organisations with similar aims. Thanks for any thoughts! Ruth

Hi All, Second Step are looking for an office space in Bath. We need somewhere that is easy to reach on public transport and is accessible to people who use wheelchairs. We would like space for around 10 desks, and would be keen to co-locate with like-minded organisations. Please do let me know if you have any suggestions! Many thanks Rosie

Hello, we are looking at buying some volunteer management software and had a good chat with Better Impact yesterday, however it seems that the rota/calender structure is not what we are after as he could only show me a view of 2 months at a time so I couldn't see the slots for a day/week. I have had a very brief glimpse into the 3 Rings software which seems to have a great display for the calendar with available slots etc

Does anyone have any recomendations of software that manages rotas/calendars nicely - they all appear to do the basic job of holding the volunteer profile data securely but we need quite a detailed rota for every day and I'm not sure Better Impact can do that. Thanks!

Hello. We are wanting to set up an advisory group comprised of our beneficiaries to assess the support we provide as well as indicate any gaps we should think about filling. Grateful for any experience that might exist amongst 3SG members for what works best.

Hi all, we have been trying for a while now to post an advert for volunteers to help at the Bath Aphasia Choir. I've used the V Connect/Simply Connect system successfully in the past when it was run by Virgin Care, but this time every time I try to post the advert I get an error message to say 'We are sorry but your role has not been saved. Please ensure all mandatory fields are completed and click save again'.

The fields are definitely all completed and we have changed a few things. My colleague has tried again today using a different browser but had the same error message. We are both using Macs but have tried on both Safari and Chrome.

I emailed the Simply Connect help address several weeks ago but haven't heard anything back.

Has anyone had similar issues or been able to solve it? Thank you…
