CVS and VC changes
Sector welcomes CVS and VC partnership work- Issue No 481 - 21 Mar 08 | |
GOVERNMENT officials informed the voluntary sector this week that in future there will be no separate funding for Volunteer Centres (VC) and the Councils of Voluntary Service network (CVS).
Following the announcement earlier this month of £11.85m for the CVS network and £11.5m for VCs the government this week said that this was the last time that the third sector will be funded in this way. Discussions on how to redevelop the role of the third sector in Scotland are expected to begin within weeks, with a new structure rolled out before funding runs out in 2011. |
