At HCVS, we understand that it is hard to keep up with the funding and legal requirements which voluntary and community sector (VCS) groups working with children and young people need to meet. Our expert in the children and young people’s field Kristine Wellington, left, is leading a number of projects designed to help you develop your organisations and increase your funding success. |
