CVS organisations play a key role in North Lanarkshire by delivering local support services to individuals and groups and providing numerous benefits to the public. Governance ensures organisations are effectively and appropriately run and ensures an organisation’s direction, effectiveness, supervision, and accountability. VANL believes that Good Governance lies at the heart of any successful organisation. VANL can provide start up and governance support to new and established organisations and also signpost for additional areas of support. VANL’s website has a range of resources and information to help organisations with their governance and also help organisations who are starting up.
