Finance Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

As a useful resource for voluntary and community groups, we have set up a FAQ's page to enable groups to pose questions, relating to the financial matters of their group, and to find responses.   We recognise that financial management is a minefield but it is a common occurence that if your group is having difficulties and has a problem that needs addressing, it is likely that other groups are struggling with the same thing.

Finance Forum

VODA has recently established a new network for Treasurer's and people involved in managing the finances of voluntary and community organisations.  The aim of this Forum is to bring people together who deal with finance related issues and queries; to enable people to share and discuss these issues and learn about new about new topics and from each other.
