This workshop is FREE to VCA Members and £25 to non members.
7th November, 2023 from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM
While the language of business can seem at odds with the aims of voluntary organisations, you still need to plan for the future to get things done, and to account to your members, and to funders and the public as you carry out your activities. This half day session will take you through the steps you will need to take to enable your organisation to gather the information and data needed to create a business plan.
