Pleased to have secured a place on the Inspiring Leaders - NHS Shadow Board programme. Really important for the VCFSE to have a greater understanding of how NHS health partners manage and govern - also an opportunity to share how we work.

Fitting that Dave's last day on earth was on the last day of #VolunteersWeek2025 - he gave a lot of time to schools, charities and other people. @ColeshillHeath @Yorkswood @3Treescentre @liambyrnemp @bhatti_saqib @ChelmsleyWMP @SolihullCollege @ChelmsleyNews @promotenorthsol
It is with great sadness that we have to report that long-serving trustee, Dave Dunkley has passed away during the weekend. David was a retired headteacher with North Solihull being very close to his heart, having been involved in tackling local inequalities since the 1960's.

An important survey to help shape the understanding of the Social Economy. We already have really useful quantitative data, this survey provides qualitative data. It will help us understand the things we need to do to help the sector grow. surveymonkey.com/r/GLNWT6N

Thanks to @VertuMotors for running the schools competition at @BCFC training ground. My 10 & 13 year olds were really chuffed to be asked to present the trophies at @DoningtonParkUK and to meet the drivers. Good to see the @Excelr8M team coming 1st and 2nd in the last race too.
