Due to a recent resignation from one of our board members moving out of the third sector, a mid-year vacancy has arisen on our Board of Trustees.

We would welcome nominations from any interested full ACOSVO member.

In terms of succession planning, as our current Treasurer will be retiring at the AGM in October, we would particularly welcome nominations from those with a financial background who would consider taking up the Office Bearer role of Treasurer at the AGM.

ACOSVO has recently completed a review of the Statutory & Non Statutory benefits we give our staff. 

In order to benchmark ourselves more widely across the Sector we invited members to join us in compiling the data.

ANALYTICAL EXCHANGE PROGRAMME 2017

This note invites bids from 3^rd sector organisations in Scotland for very short sharp projects (up to 10 person days) where statistical or analytical skills could make a difference to your organisation. The way this would work is individuals or small groups of Scottish Government analysts (one or two people) act as an analytical consultancy to help solve problems in your organisation and would be delivered at no cost to you.

The Scottish Government has approached ACOSVO to invite third sector leaders to participate in the next round of the SG Digital Champions development programme.

See below for letter from Sarah Davidson (or the letter and full programme details can also be viewed here). Please note the deadline has been extended until February 10th.
