Thank you to those of us who joined our AGM on 13th October. With so much happening in the sector we kept this year simple, online and brief - which was tricky because there was so much to say! You can check out just some of the ways that BVSC has been supporting the voluntary and community sector in our CEO’s summary here.
BVSC are seeking a visionary leader with energy, integrity and commitment to lead the organisation to be an effective source of support to both the largest charities and smallest grassroot groups in Bexley
UPDATE: It's looking like all the places are taken, but do check with Karen just in case someone pulls out. Also, don't forget that Karen can offer similar help in some areas.
Book a hour of mentoring from expert Claudia Demuth for free thanks to Impact in Action.
Discover short cuts in your work by hearing from those who know what it's like! Impact in Action's latest training brochure is here. There are some favourites (the 7 Impact Sessions which are foundational for anyone involved in voluntary or community groups) plus some nice surprises including:
Impact in Action teamed up with Superhighways to provide specialist Excel sessions. With over 50 attendances the sessions, people came back for more and left with some hugely positive comments. Attached is a summary of the sessions created by putting the Excel training into practice.
Don't miss out on future training which can be found here, plus if you can't find what you are looking for feel free to call and we will see what we can do.
BVSC joined this recent research session where IVAR considered what it's like to make funding applications. Check out their findings here: https://bit.ly/3xGzxvZ
Impact in Action and the Cory Community Fund have teamed up to offer a training session for those interested in applying to the Cory Community Fund. The scheme offers groups up to £7,500 for activities in the community that generate positive improvements in people’s lives. The application site has now gone live, but if you'd like extra support in applying then check out this training.
