Ahead of the Government / Third Sector summit being held Monday 24th November, ACEVO has called for a ‘great debate’ and a drive for discussion of the big ideas on how Government can support the third sector through the recession.
The upcoming summit is an important opportunity for us to thrash out a package of Government support, not only so that we can survive the recession, but to lay foundations for the future development of the sector after the recession has passed.
ACEVO is trying to kick-start the debate with some ideas of our own. This is an important time, and your contribution matters. Please tell us what you think of our ideas and let us know about your own by clicking here.
