Voluntary Action Orkney is in the process of putting together information sessions on a variety of topics to offer to third sector organisations in Orkney.

Each session will last approximately 1 ½ hours and can be made up from up to 3 modules per session.

The sessions will be held virtually and will be exclusive to individual organisations so giving us the opportunity to engage fully with any issues/questions specifically related to your organisation.

In order to plan effectively we would like to gauge the level of interest in the topic areas listed to assess which would be most relevant and useful to your organisation at this unprecedented time.

If you have any questions about this survey please contact malcolm.scott@vaorkney.org.uk
