Welcome to Be Engaged
Hello
My name is Maurice Mcleod and I’m the editor of NCVO’s new membership publication, Engage magazine.
NCVO is the National Council for Voluntary Organisations, which gives voice and support to England’s voluntary and community sector and has over 6000 member organisations.
I will be using this blog to let you know about the new publication and getting your views on how we’re doing.
Engage magazine will build on the successes of the much loved VS magazine, which has brought you news, views, analysis and information from the voluntary and community sector since July 2005.
The magazine will be bi-monthly and will support our member organisations by telling your stories, sharing your learning, advising on best practice, providing expert opinion and guidance and letting you know about the tools that will help you do your job.
I’m also going to be writing about all aspects of civil society, from the grassroots to Government, communities to the Compact, funding to finance.
This blog will serve as a place for our readers to comment on issues raised in the magazine, as well as in the blog. Engage intends to live up to its name so please feel free to share your thoughts.
I look forward to getting to know you.
Maurice Mcleod
Editor, Engage magazine
