Do you run a VCSE organisation in East Devon? Is there an area of your work that you struggle with, or wish you knew more about? Is there a skillset that you wish you had?
As part of the new voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) support service from Devon Communities Together (DCT), a series of FREE training events has been launched for VCSE organisations based in, or serving communities in, East Devon.
These 'bitesized' sessions (a mix of online and in-person) will last for 90 minutes and feature a guest trainer, plus an opportunity for questions and discussions with other attendees from across East Devon. They are a fantastic chance to give particular areas of your organisation a real boost and learn new skill that could make a huge difference to your mission.
All live events can be found on our website here: https://www.devoncommunities.org.uk/courses/category/east-devon-vcse-support and via the Eventbrite links below:
