Charities and Community groups in Bucks will be offered support, guidance and training thanks to a new service from Community Impact Bucks.
The Council funded venture, called the VCSE Support Service, supports charities, voluntary and community groups and social enterprises, in all aspects of their work including securing essential funding, being well-managed, and recruiting volunteers.
Katie Higginson, CEO of Community Impact Bucks, has said:
“We have an amazing array of charities and community groups in Buckinghamshire, playing an essential part in the running of our communities. However their experience of the pandemic has varied considerably – some have adapted brilliantly, while others have struggled with reduced incomes and losing volunteers – and we have seen new grassroots groups set up to respond to new needs,”
“Our new service can provide support to these organisations, whatever their situation – whether it is to overcome challenges and adapt to new ways of working; to set up, grow, and put in place the structures, funding and people they need to be successful; or perhaps to get through difficult times, offering support to help them be stronger and more resilient. Tailored support ensures each organisation can get the help that they need.”
To get help for an organisation that would benefit from this support, people are encouraged to fill in a short request form and then a member of the team will get in touch. Organisations can request support for themselves or they can be referred by a third party.
