A network of ‘Q Connectors’ – for members who love connecting people and ideas across boundaries
This is a voluntary role, for people who want to be more active in supporting information-sharing, relationship- and network-building, partnerships and more. Connectors act as catalysts for Q and test new developments.
If you are a community member and want to learn more about what’s happening in Q around you, or need advice about connecting and sharing – contact your nearest Connector(s) and they will try to help.

Q Connectors are enthusiastic knowledge-sharers and relationship-builders who play a crucial on-the-ground role of weaving Q together as a UK-wide community. They provide suggestions and share their experiences to help develop Q’s spaces and activities – and other structures. They also can act as point of call for new members locally who need some signposting and support. Though they are not part of the formal governance structure, they will be given support to develop these skills.
One thing to be clear about, it is an informal and flexible role. Connectors can join – and leave – whenever they need to.
The aim is to have at least two or three Connectors in each area of the UK.
