Workshop: Now Get Out of This! A Community Action Hampshire Event.
This event will help voluntary organisations plan for the squeeze in all types of public funding over the coming years. Whichever flavour of government we have come June 2010, however vague the political parties are about where the cuts will come -they are coming. The voluntary and community sector will feel the heat - organisations of all shapes and sizes will face challenges and need to be ready to seize new opportunities.
Be inspired by our keynote speaker Andrew Robinson MBE, Director at Charity Fund Manager CCLA, trustee of Chase Lankelly Foundation and the Community Development Foundation. His passion and work to support the growth of an enterprising and thriving VCS may be exactly what you need to hear. 
Be supported by the workshops to get the tools you need to help you take charge and  manage change rather than let it manage you.

Venue: Alton Maltings Centre.
