Our London project at AoC, is providing extra support specifically for London Chairs and Vice Chairs in the form of monthly in-person peer support events and a Co-Mentoring Scheme. This is thanks to specialist funder City Bridge Foundation.  

Our mission is:

  • To help enable more London Chairs to lead more effectively
  • For Chairs to have access to a London network for mutual support
  • For more equity, diversity and inclusion among London Chairs

We have a great programme of monthly in-person London peer sessions lined up for the Autumn, kicking off in September and our co-mentoring scheme for London Chairs is going really well too and the application process is open for that, with the next matching taking place in October time. We’re into the second year of our London Project now and we are focussing on our EDI strategy this year too. So lots going on.

Our updated London Project web-page can be found online here.

We’re so keen to get the word out to as many London Chairs / Vice Chairs / Co-Chairs and aspiring Chairs as possible and these events and co-mentoring scheme are totally free of charge.

It would be great to connect with you and tell you a bit more about the peer support events and mentoring work that we are doing with London Chairs.
