Trustee guide to campaigning and influencing - what you need to know

This short guide outlines both what is required by the law and what is good practice in the development and implementation of effective campaigns. It’s relevant whether you are involved in a large organisation looking at the strategic overview or in a small organisation and are more directly involved in the day-to-day delivery of activities.

Mapping the gaps

With funding from Capacitybuilders’ National Support Service programme, the Association of Chief Executives of Voluntary Organisations (ACEVO), the leading voice for Chief Executives in the charity sector, has launched a major piece of research called ‘Mapping the Gaps’. The report explores the gaps that currently exist between the income generation needs of frontline organisations and the support available to them.
