Third sector asked for opinions on managing through financial crisis

Posted in News on the November 17th, 2008

Those working in the third sector are being called upon to offer their views on how the government can help them to manage through the economic downturn, it has been reported.

In news that might interest those looking to improve sustainable efficiencies, the Association of Chief Executives at Voluntary Organisations (Acevo) is canvassing for opinions from those working for charities and voluntary groups on how they can be assisted in handling with an increasing demand in services despite the financial difficulties they face.

ThirdSector.co.uk reports that views are being sought ahead of a meeting that Acevo and other umbrella organisations in the voluntary sector are set to have with Kevin Brennan, minister for the third sector, later this month.

Stephen Bubb, chief executive of Acevo, said: "It is important that any support we agree on at the summit be based on lively, broad-ranging and open debate across the third sector.

"We want to hear from as many people as possible."

Meanwhile, a recent study by Russam GMS reported that as the financial crisis continues an increasing number of Britons are set to look for interim management positions.
