Whether you have just set up a local organisation to make a difference to your community or you’re involved in one that’s been running for some time, there are rules, regulations and procedures, people to keep happy, and plenty of things that can go wrong. It can all seem very complicated, when all you wanted to do was help the local community.
The good news is that there are plenty of sources of information and advice available. From issues about employing staff to making sure the governance of your organisation is up to scratch, from finding out about insurance to managing volunteers – even working out what policies and procedures are right for your organisation, CVS can help.
We have experience of supporting organisations of all sizes through all sorts of changes.
The voluntary and community sector faces increased demands for services and most organisations have been affected by cuts to their finances.
- We contributed to guidance called Facing a challenging financial future which is intended for trustees and committee members who may face difficult decisions in the coming weeks, months and years.
