22 Nova VCSE Advocates are in post, providing representation for the sector at their specific board meeting.

All Advocates currently work or volunteer in the sector and use their daily experience, practice, and connections to contribute to meetings.

Advocates welcome input and information from the wider sector. If you would like to connect with an Advocate or share information, opinions, or feedback for them to transmit at their bord meeting, please contact [email protected] or book to attend a VCSE Voices meeting and contribute directly.
