Collaborating for Impact: Charities working together in Haringey

The cost of living crisis has hit communities hard - and charities are feeling the pressure. Yet in the face of growing demand and shrinking resources, many local organisations are finding strength in collaboration.

Join us at The Trampery Tottenham for an inspiring morning event that will highlight the power of partnership in Haringey’s third sector. This event will feature a dynamic panel discussion with Ken Williams, Director of Learning and Impact, Sister System, and Ruth Glover, CEO and Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist, Open Door, two leaders who are transforming the way charities work together. Hear how their organisations joined forces, the challenges they tackled, and the real impact their collaboration has made.

The panel will be followed by an address from Dan Rogers, the Chief Executive Officer of Public Voice, a Community Interest Company working to improve public services and neighbourhoods through meaningful user and community engagement. With a background in strategy, operations and innovation, Dan has led projects that deliver real social impact across government, industry and the voluntary sector. At this event, Dan will share the work that Public Voice is doing in Haringey, including how they partner with community groups and charities to amplify local voices and drive positive change.

Ask & Receive: Build New Connections

Following the panel, take part in Ask and Offer, a live session where Haringey charities can share what support they need, as well as what they’re able to offer others. It's a chance to spark new collaborations and strengthen our collective impact.

Want to be part of the Ask and Receive? Submit your contribution by October 13th, 2025 here. A selection of entries will be shared live, with others circulated after the event to help build ongoing connections.

Stick Around for Networking

Wrap up the morning by connecting with peers, potential partners, and fellow changemakers from across the borough. Light refreshments will be provided.

Let’s come together, share boldly, and build a stronger Haringey - together.
