WCVA Newsletter w/c 12th August '19

Hi, and welcome to this week’s newsletter. We're just back from the National Eisteddfod, where our refreshed purpose and new look went down a treat with our lovely stand visitors - thanks so much for all your kind comments, we're really happy with it too! At the Eisteddfod we had another exciting launch - the Walter Dickie Leadership Bursary. The bursary gives £2,500 annually to a leader of a voluntary organisation who's looking to develop their entrepreneurial skills. The bursary is now taking applications so get in touch with the Social Investment Cymru team to find out more. Finally, next week is the start of our Board Election process for 2019. The nomination phase will kick off on 19 August. Keep your eyes peeled this week to learn how to nominate... Thanks for reading, we’ll catch you again next week.
