About EVOC
Edinburgh Voluntary Organisations’ Council (EVOC ) has been supporting the people and communities of Edinburgh since 1868. We do this by supporting, developing and promoting the interests and work of voluntary and community organisations across the City. We focus on:
Providing services that enable voluntary sector organisations to thrive.
Working to influence the statutory sector in the creation of conditions that will allow the voluntary sector to flourish.Vision, Mission, Values
Our Mission: To be a leader and catalyst of social change
Our Vision: To be a trusted and respected leader for the community and voluntary sector that supports organisations to develop and thrive.
Our Values:
Creative: We are creative in our approaches, ideas and in creating space for better outcomes
Collaborative: We listen, share and challenge
Enabling: We develop opportunities and deliver change
Excellence: We lead with passion and professionalism
Fair: We act with impartiality, balance and integrity
Inclusive: We are inclusive and collective in all our work
Supportive: We respond to the voluntary sector’s changing needs to enable them to continue to meet the needs of communities
Our Strategic Objectives:
Leadership – we will articulate our leadership role in the sector, managing the intricacies of our interface role, and make those interventions visible across all sectors. At the same time, we will develop our leadership role both nationally and politically. We will also develop the leadership roles of our staff team.
Development – we will be a vehicle for changing social outcomes, driving and implementing solutions based on our own and others research findings. It is our intention to embed a broad-based ‘Development Agency’ approach, building capacity and skills across the sector, therefore raising the reputation and the profiles of many of Edinburgh’s voluntary organisations.
Advocacy – we have a key influencing role in working with the voluntary and community sector and in bridging and brokering the relationships with our public sector partners. This is a unique and challenging role that informs, engages and communicates these different interests and priorities and one which we aim to strengthen.
This fun and engaging communication course has been designed to help people gain an understanding of how and why we communicate and the impact poor communication can have on a person with learning disabilities.
Whether it’s writing an e-mail that will get read, making a difficult telephone call or getting your point across in a meeting or presentation, good communication skills are even more essential in today’s organisation, where time is money that none of us can afford to waste.
This workshop is designed for anyone who needs to take formal or informal minutes of meetings. The workshop will provide opportunities to listen to sample meetings and take part in a live meeting role play.
Ensure that the minutes you take at meetings are clear, accurate and professional. Learn to work with the chair, prepare the agenda and confidently record the meeting.
To empower a greater awareness and understanding of the structure of communication and the way we use different language patterns to make sense of our world and interact with others.
