Two of our ongoing support themes are around technology and the use of digital tools as well as good governance and improving approaches to trusteeship on volunteer boards.
So we’ve updated our training schedule for the rest of 2017 to provide a range of sessions that should cover these topics well.
Further details in due course, but here is the schedule for the coming months:

10th – “Mastering Mailchimp”. 2 hour training session explaining from basics to in-depth on how to create and manage e-newsletters using Mailchimp. £10pp (£15pp non-members).
24th – “Induction and Refresher Training for Trustees”. Our regular trustees introductory session for those new to the role or those needing to keep updated. This session is 5.30-7.30pm in order to accommodate trustees who might not be able to do daytime. £15pp (£20pp non-members)
