Surgeries are for Voluntary, Charity and Social Enterprise organisations, based in East Devon, or serving East Devon communities.

Come meet a member of DCT’s team at one of our local support surgeries.

Talk through the challenges and goals of your organisation with an experienced and empathetic ear to listen. We all know how sometimes just getting out of your day-to-day and talking through a situation can shed new light on how to proceed.

As well as listening, DCT’s team will be able to provide you with dedicated resources, signpost you to further support, or book in some time for further detailed support in the near future.

Common areas of support identified by organisations at previous events have been:

Financial sustainability

Volunteer recruitment and management

Business planning and management

Connecting and partnering

If these are topics which you are looking for support with, or around anything else, come visit us. We support both established VCSE's as well as those in the process of startup with a new idea. All welcome!

Please select a ticket with your time of arrival, this will help ensure we effectively manage our time and advice given on the day.

It would be very helpful if upon booking, you could email EastdevonVCSE@devoncommunities.org.uk with a little bit of information about yourselves and what you are hoping to talk to us about. We may like to contact you prior to the meeting to find out some more.
