Thanks

It's worth noting that my enthusiasm for getting more involved with the charity sector and volunteering was first stimulated by my good lady wife, Jan, who has spent many a long year gently nagging me to do more in the wider community.

And secondly, I got a huge benefit from the excellent programmes developed and offered by the Foundation for Social Improvement who do a great job supporting small charities across the UK.  Here's a plea - if you work in a small charity in the UK and want to build your knowledge and skills, get in touch with the FSI.

And thirdly a big thanks to Integration Support Services, the charity that I've only recently joined as a Trustee for letting me do this project.  I'm working on a new website for them, and the pressure is on to get it done before I go.
