Go Jane

I have just got a note from Mary Marsh telling me about the appointment of Jane Slowey as Chair of the new skills body for the Third Sector. Jane is the CEO of the Foyer Federation, a magnificent national charity of distinction. Jane has been an active ACEVO member and a charming one to boot. Good luck Jane in this task. We need investment in sector leadership. We need this new skills body to work. ACEVO will be behind you in expanding and promoting skills and leadership development.
