On Friday, 3rd March 2023, we are pleased to announce the appointment of Teresa Robertson as VASLan’s new Trustee.
Teresa Robertson will bring new insights and expertise to the leadership of VASLan.
Teresa Robertson said: “I’m absolutely delighted and honoured to be. The organisation, for me, is very much aligned. There’s the internal passion of always helping people.”
Following the Third Sector Locality Networks launch in September, VASLan is looking to identify organisations in the Cambuslang and Rutherglen; and Hamilton, Larkhall and Blantyre localities interested in leading the planning and facilitation of future events in their locality.
The South Lanarkshire Social Enterprise Network (SLSEN) meeting continues in January. This time, the networking meeting was held in EK Collective, a warm and friendly workspace and social enterprise in East Kilbride. We invited and brought together social enterprises across South Lanarkshire to develop ideas, discuss challenges and opportunities, and make plans for the future.
This Volunteering Strategy is intended to demonstrate a South Lanarkshire-wide commitment to the importance of volunteering, the benefits to individuals and the impact on our communities, now and in the future. The strategy provides a support framework for individual volunteers, community-based organisations and groups, and Community Planning Partners.
