Prosper offers a supportive local forum which actively encourages collaboration and provides a voice for the Northeast around key policy issues and developments.
As a Prosper committee member I am able to build connections and learn from other members from across the northeast region, to share sector insights and keep up to date with developments and opportunities that inform the work of Aberdeen Foyer in our mission to end youth homelessness and alleviate the impact of poverty.

Chief Executive Aberdeen Foyer
The benefits of the Prosper membership are fantastic and Lifelink has been a member since 2015. Many of the day-to-day challenges of running a thriving business are the same irrespective of the sector or industries we work in.
Membership allows us to share learning with peers from a rich and diverse network, think about new ways of working and keep abreast of policy changes. The productivity clubs have also been instrumental in supporting our sustainability journey!
Jacqui Taylor
Chief Executive Lifelink
It is the work that Prosper do at a regional level that I am most impressed with.
Their ability to gather representatives from right across the private, public and social economic sectors in a room to talk about their shared challenges is remarkable.
Their talent for creating events of all shapes and sizes that allow us as members to network with our peers is invaluable.
