The Clore Social Leadership Programme is inviting applications for its third intake
of Fellows. The Programme exists to build the leadership capacity of the third sector,
and covers people working or volunteering in charities, community organisations,
social enterprises, co-ops, and the social housing sector. Applications are open
to any UK resident with substantial work or volunteering experience in the third
sector. Up to 20 Fellows will be picked.

The aim is to create an intensive programme of support for up and coming third sector
leaders throughout the UK. Their work and involvement in the Programme should not
only improve their own qualities but also bring significant benefits to UK communities.
Applicants can come from the widest variety of third sector organisations and can
be employees or volunteers. Applicants will need to show they have already achieved
a lot in what they have done and that a period of 12 or 24 months of full or part-
time support will bring them, and the work they do, lasting benefits. All applicants
will need to be supported by a nominator and two referees.

The support includes residential courses, mentoring, coaching, secondments, research,
focused reflection and action learning.

Each Fellow can choose to take part in the programme either through an intensive
one year full time commitment, or on a part-time basis over two years. Up to £15,000
is given to the Fellow’s employer to cover for their time away, or up to £20,000
to the Fellow directly if they are self-employed or taking an unpaid sabbatical 
or career break.

In 2010, 16 Social Leadership Fellows were chosen and they are working through their
Fellowships now: 10 women and 6 men. There is a full biography of each available
at http://www.cloresocialleadership.org.uk/fellows-2011.
