How Does it Work?
We match teams of four Pilotlighters from different private and public sector organisations with a specific charity or social enterprise. Over 10 months, each team meets with their charity’s leader and members of its board for three hours once a month. The programme is managed by an experienced Pilotlight Project Manager who facilitates the sessions, arranges meetings and ensures the best possible outcomes.
