Eliz & Xtine, scanned over it! - and they forgot one CORE factor in this post! - it's not about you or your goals, it is about your service users and how you can connect your audience on ther virtual turf! ;o)

Here's another inspiration for my charity chums. This YouTube Channel is for the sector. It covers some of what wie discussed, but these are big figure heads! so they have more clout than little mini-me ;o) Enjoy

Community organisations are increasingly agents of the state, and no longer radical champions of social justice. Ruth Townsley, Voice and Impact manager, questions whether community organisations are losing their critical voice. The independent voice of the sector, the voice that challenges the 'one size fits all' policies of government, and which calls to account statutory services, the voice which connects with marginalised groups of many types to ensure they are not bypassed by the generic central government solutions, is being eroded.

Collaboration Benefits recognises the need to support the voluntary and community sector with collaboration skills. By offering training, Collaboration Benefits aims to reach organisations in the community where the awareness and skills in collaboration are most needed.
