The Charter aims to do this by bringing together organisations that want to develop both individuals’ and/or their own [Basic Digital Skills](http://digital.scvo.scot/about/basic-digital-skills/), to pool resources and share knowledge & opportunities. So, if you’re looking for something to help you get started with developing digital skills, or your organisation has something they can offer to help others, [sign up](http://charter.scvo.scot/Sign) to the Charter and add your [offers & wants](http://charter.scvo.scot/Items/OffersAndWants) to the site. Any questions or queries we’d be delighted to hear from you, just drop us an email at [digital@scvo.scot](mailto:digital@scvo.scot). By working together we can help everyone in Scotland make the most of our digital world.

## About SCVO

SCVO (Scottish Council for Voluntary Organisations) is the national membership organisation for Scotland's voluntary sector.

Our role is to champion the role of voluntary organisations in Scotland and to support them to do work that has a positive impact.

SCVO supports members and the wider voluntary sector with all aspects of setting up and running a voluntary organisation. SCVO represents the needs and concerns of the voluntary sector to the Scottish government in Holyrood and UK government and Westminster. Through our learning and events programme SCVO offers training and development opportunities to the sector.

Members access an extensive membership benefits package including specialist, in-depth, 1-to-1 guidance from our Information Services team and from professional service partners.

Access to exclusive membership networks (including comms, employers, governance and policy) supports members to grow their connections, stay up to date, exchange ideas and views with peers, and learn through tailored, learning opportunities.

SCVO members enjoy free access to Funding Scotland Premium to stay on top of funding opportunities to support their organisation’s financial resilience.

Discounts and savings savings on SCVO products and services (including our HR service, managed IT support, payroll service and events and training) and partner offers provide members with support to allow them to focus on delivering their organisation’s goals. Further SCVO products and services include [extensive digital support](https://scvo.scot/support/digital), a climate action resource [Growing Climate Confidence](https://climateconfident.scot), a voluntary sector publication [Third Force News](https://tfn.scot) and a voluntary sector jobs and recruitment service [Goodmoves](https://goodmoves.org).
