STEP CONNECT2

365 Community

At STEP CONNECT2, we are proud of our role in connecting communities throughout the UK & Ireland.  

For each community we serve, we offer a range of events, both big and small, from which our clients can choose according to their own specific focus, challenges and objectives. We are committed to continuous engagement, reflection and adaptation, ensuring our initiatives evolve in step with the needs of our communities. In doing so, we inspire progress and drive innovation. 

Our 365 engagement approach includes:

  • Leaders Network – Regular networking lunches and a WhatsApp group for instant problem-solving.
  • Thematic Conferences – Smaller-scale, focused gatherings where like-minded individuals collaborate on specific challenges.
  • Wider Accessibility – Events hosted across the UK, making participation more inclusive and geographically diverse.
  • ‘In Conversation With’ Series – Exclusive interviews with leading figures in the sector.
  • Live Streaming – Conference content shared via our websites and social media channels.
  • 'Developing Future Talent' Initiative – Inspiring the next generation of innovators by providing free access to conference content.

And we continue to develop new initiatives - watch this space!

A Proud Moment

Our dedication to serving the needs of our communities, connecting like-minded groups throughout the year with a variety of events, both large and small, was recognised at the Indy Awards in 2024, where we won the Best 365 Community Award. For the team at STEP CONNECT2, this award was not only a testament to our dedication to fostering year-round opportunities for our communities but also a powerful motivation to further expand and enhance our 365 engagement initiative.
