It can be hard for people who work and volunteer for charities and community groups to keep up with new policies from local and central government.
One of the services that we provide is a regular policy e-newsletter, which includes short, plain English summaries of important policies which will affect local voluntary groups. These updates are produced by our CANBE (Communities and Neighbourhoods Building Effectiveness) team. CANBE is a project which aims to help local people and groups work as equals with decision makers.
We also do more in depth policy briefings on important issues. For example, we are currently working on a summary of the big changes which the government has announced for healthcare. Some of the past policy briefings that we have prepared can be seen here and our e-newsletters can be seen here.
If you would like to receive copies of our policy newsletters or want an indepth briefing on a particular policy, please contact Rahma Elmi, CANBE Development Worker or leave us a comment.
ECVS supports communities in finding their own solutions to local issues in the London Borough of Ealing - including empowering voluntary and community organisations; supporting volunteering; training; and strengthening the ability of local collective and individual voices to influence the decision-making processes that affect them.
Welcome
