Data protection doesn’t have to be a headache—or a snooze-fest!

Join us for a lively, no-jargon overview session designed specifically for small charities in Somerset.

During this Lunch & Learn session, we’ll cover the basics: what data protection is, your key responsibilities, and what you really need to know to stay on the right side of the law.

Who is it for?

Volunteers and staff from VCFSE organisations (including community interest companies, community benefit societies and unincorporated organisations) who want a clear, friendly introduction—without getting bogged down in the details. Let’s make data protection simple and stress-free!

If you are involved in managing and setting policies for your organisation, you may also be interested in our additional session (for leaders, trustees, and policymakers) on Tuesday 8 April. Find out more here.
