What do members say about the course?

“WOW I totally love this you have created something awesome that’s for sure. This is going to so very helpful to all convenors especially for those who are new to the role etc. I couldn’t find fault in any of it and I love how you talk us all through it all.”

“Really helpful with giving me guidance on checklists for good governance – thanks so much! I found it really easy to follow and helpful particularly around what motivates people to volunteer, how to convert people from being aware to being engaged and giving recognition”.
