How to survive and thrive in challenging times

The cost-of-living crisis is causing significant challenges for us all, and charity trustees need support to steer their organisations through the post pandemic recovery. People and communities require our services more than ever, but resources and energy are low, while costs are increasing and fundraising is getting harder. That’s why we’re running a free lunchtime webinar during Trustees’ Week where you can ask our experts for help on the issues you're facing and hear their tips on how to survive and thrive.

This webinar is aimed at giving trustees and senior staff the tools and information they need to survive and thrive over the next few months. As well as hearing from the partners in SCVO's free legal and tax advice services with their own top tips, we're asking you to submit any questions you have beforehand to tracey.bird@scvo.scot

If you're struggling to stay afloat, or just need some help to future proof your organisation, this webinar is for you. SCVO pro bono service partners, all with wide ranging legal and financial expertise, will look at the following topics:

• HR and Employment
• Property
• VAT and Tax
• Mergers and Collaborations

Maybe you’re looking for tips on how to attract, retain and support employees when salaries can’t keep pace with inflation. Or you need to review your property contract. You could be considering merging or collaborating with another organisation, or need advice on how to be more tax efficient. If so, then come along to our webinar to find the answers to your questions and access to ongoing free support.
