In its budget, the Scottish Government announced a new £10m fund called Community Jobs Scotland – to create 2000 openings in the third sector for young people. The Scottish Social Enterprise Coalition and SCVO will be working in partnership with the Scottish Government to deliver a programme that will look to offer concrete work experience as well as contributing to local communities. [SCVO report] Organisations interested in getting involved are invited to attend a briefing at the Gathering on Wednesday 23 February from 12-1.30 at the EICC in Edinburgh. Please email Donna Mackinnon at SCVO to register.
