Here’s what people who attended previous workshops thought:
"We found the workshops very useful as we worked through the process of setting up a new charitable trust. We’ve previously been involved in community organisations but at each workshop we learned new things or easier ways of doing things." - Rhonda and Ronel, Waiora Links Community Trust.
"On Track highlighted a number of things we could improve on including our social media profile and the programme was a great help." - Ian, The Person to Person Help Trust.
“I am pleased to see you are running On Track again. Having attended the last time, I think they were very interesting and contained a wealth of information and sound practical advice for volunteers running community groups and clubs.” - David Gambold. Secretary, Ashley RFC.
“I highly recommend this course for those involved in the voluntary sector. As members of the governing board of a relatively new Trust, we found it very useful. It gave us tools to set up governance, financial and administrative structures. It was a great opportunity to meet managers, staff and volunteers, and learn from their experiences” - Judith, Waimakariri Biodiversity Trust.
“For me, one of the most important takeaways from the On-Track seminars is the fantastic opportunity to learn and interact with other community leaders.” - Padi Nistala GLOW Global Locals of Waimakariri/Timebank Waimakariri.
