Are you looking for charity sector support?
We understand that as a small charity or community group, it can be difficult to know where to turn for guidance and support.
Through one-to-one support tailored to your needs, we can advise on everything from community group set up to developing your organisation and charity governance.
We also offer opportunities to network in your local area with other VCSE organisations, to share knowledge and experiences and make positive connections.
What support will I receive?
Our free support can help your organisation to evolve and improve, develop skills and improve strategies and resilience for long term sustainability.
Support includes:
Advice and information
this could include identifying funding opportunities, how to structure your organisation, leadership and governance.
Tailored support plans
such as improving the design and delivery of the services you provide, or looking at leadership and governance skills.
Networking
to share ideas and best practice, identify local and national developments which may impact on VCSEs, and develop effective partnerships.
Training
such as AI, safeguarding, risk assessments, applying for funding, using social media.
Newsletter
with sector developments and news, funding opportunities, useful resources.
Information and advice
If you need advice on the day to day running of your organisation, we can help with developing policies, risk assessments, registering a charity, choosing a structure and all aspects of charity governance.
Training
We understand each organisation is individual and so your training needs will be too. We can provide tailored advice on the right training for your organisation.
