VAL Introduces Skills for Good Training Vouchers

New initiative aims to support voluntary and community organisations

Voluntary Action Leeds (VAL) has announced the launch of Skills for Good training vouchers, designed to assist voluntary and community organisations in developing their teams. The vouchers offer a flexible funding option for training, allowing organisations to plan ahead and manage their budgets effectively.

Details of the training vouchers

• The vouchers can be used to access a variety of sector-specific courses tailored to the voluntary and community sector.
• They are valid until the end of the 2026/27 financial year.
• Vouchers may be transferred within the same organisation, providing flexibility in their use.
• They can be applied to scheduled VAL training sessions or bespoke in-house training, subject to availability and terms.

Purpose and benefits

The initiative aims to support organisations in strengthening their teams and enhancing their capacity to deliver vital community services. By choosing charity-led training, organisations contribute to local community development and help fund essential support services.

Organisations interested in applying for the Skills for Good training vouchers or booking training sessions can find further information through Voluntary Action Leeds.
