SKiLD is for people who give hands-on support to
local third sector groups in England.
We're calling people who do this development workers, but there are
many different people doing many different jobs out there. Work
might be offering general development support to groups, or
specialist help such as funding advice or training. You might be
called anything from a small groups advisor or funding advice
worker to a training officer or legal consultant.
People who give hands-on support to groups are usually based in
some kind of infrastructure organisation. This might be a local CVS
or rural community council; a specialist support organisation or a
national agency.
The overall aim of SKiLD is to equip development
workers with the skills and knowledge they need to give accessible,
relevant and high quality support to local third sector
groups.
