Ask Nova: Free Advice Session For VCSE Organisations

Each month, our office is usually open for a free drop in. We're having some work done to our building in February so Ask Nova is going online. 

Our Advisers will be available to meet on Microsoft Teams and give free advice. 

It's a friendly space to ask questions, share ideas, or get help with the tricky stuff.

How can we help?

Our Advisers work with hundreds of Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise (VCSE) organisations, big and small, and understand the challenges of running an organisation - but you don't have to tackle it alone!

Whether you’re just starting out or have been established for years, we're here to support you with:

• Funding and fundraising
• Governance and policies
• Project planning
• Enterprising to diversify your income
• Volunteer management
• Safeguarding
• Getting started as an organisation
• Marketing and design
• Anything else on your mind

Who is it for?

The drop in is for staff, trustees, and volunteers from a VCSE organisation working in Wakefield District. This includes:

• Charities
• Community groups
• Faith-based organisations
• Social enterprises
• CICs (Community Interest Companies)
• Co-operatives
• Voluntary organisations
• Environmental or heritage groups

What now?

As we're online this month, we're asking you to please book a 45 minute slot. You don't have to stay for the full time if you just have a quick query.
