Workforce Resilience Offer

GBA's workforce support is aimed at organisations within Berkshire that have sport or physical activity as part of their offer. Through funding from Sport England, we aim to help those organisations to become more resilient and therefore sustainable through the current economic crisis.

1-1 Mentoring & Support

We have partnered with Our Community Enterprise, a social enterprise who provide business support, strategy, fundraising and project development support to provide a light touch mentoring and support programme for Berkshire organisations.

The aim of the programme is to help Sports, health and wellbeing organisations survive and thrive through identifying organisational barriers to resilience and sustainability, recommend actions to sustainability and help with meaningful advice that drives longer term organisational change.
