Changing the world can be hard, but we can help.

We have three development officers who support, promote and represent the voluntary sector in Perth and Kinross. They are in contact with some 800 local groups and have helped a portion of these groups start up or become registered charities. The support services provided are free of charge.

Our development officers provide training on issues such as:

  • Funding applications & reporting
  • Charity law
  • Bookkeeping
  • Employment law
  • Data protections

  • Governance & management

This is on top of all the individual help and advice that is given!
