Over the last two years, Kiveton Park & Wales Community Development Trust (KPWCDT) has been running Kivo-Ebiz, a social enterprise selling unwanted items on e-bay on behalf of local people. Over a period of 18 months Kivo-Ebiz has brought £50,000 to their local community.
In May 2008, the DTA organised a workshop at KPWCDT to explore how development trusts can successfully trade on eBay for the benefit of their community; bringing much needed income to local people and strengthening their organisation at the same time. It looked at practical know-how and reviewed some of the assumptions behind the business model.
We are now looking at running repeat workshops to promote eBay trading as a service and as a way of generating income for the local community. We will update this page as soon as we have decided on a date. In the meantime, if you have any question please email g.arradon@dta.org.uk
Thank you for registering - we will send you a full programme shortly with directions for getting to the Trust. In the meantime, if you have any questions please contact Glenn Arradon on 020 7336 9410 or email g.arradon@dta.org.uk.
I look forward to seeing you on the day!
