Update your Digital Inclusion services - KCSC E-bulletin

KCSC's weekly e-bulletin

It's your last chance to sign up to this Thursday's session on Money Guiders, from the Money and Pensions service!

We're featuring a wide spectrum of opportunities and services in this week's newsletter, from emergency planning volunteering to carnival archives to specialist employment support. Plus, the Digital Inclusion team want to hear from you about your services so they can ensure their new handbook is up to date.

Lastly, a reminder that you can send your VCS related contributions to this e-bulletin to [email protected], or by signing up to post them yourself on our Community Noticeboard.
