Network Support Session - April 2026
Our Network Support Sessions are informal, supportive spaces for people working across the creative and cultural sector to connect, share, and learn together on themes around sustainability.
Each session offers time to:
- Check in with peers facing similar challenges, share ideas, questions, and experiences
- Get support, signposting, and practical insight from the SAIL team
- Guest Speaker
- Build connections across the network
Sessions are conversation-led and responsive to those in the room. There’s no pressure to prepare or present, you’re welcome to bring a challenge you’re working through, something you’d like feedback on, or simply come along to listen and connect. These sessions are open to anyone and are designed to be accessible, welcoming, and shaped by the needs of participants. Whether you’re just starting out or have years of experience, you’re encouraged to take part in whatever way feels right for you.
Session Agenda
The theme for this session is ENERGY. We'll share SAIL insights from our community energy project, case studies from Bradford 2025, and battery power solutions.
We'll also be joined by Chris Organ from Ecotricity Business, who will speak about green energy followed by a Q&A. Ecotricity Business is Britains overall greenest energy company, building new wind & solar projects across the UK!
We'll then open up the conversation to explore challenges, share support needs, and create a space to connect, focusing on energy, while also welcoming any other topics you'd like to discuss.
