MVSC Development Service
- Do you want to start a new group?
- Do you need funding?
- Do you need help in other ways?
MVSC's development service provides support and information to primarily small, new and emerging groups in Merton. We can work with you on a wide range of issues - from setting up a new group, to fundraising, employment issues or establishing ways of monitoring what you do.
We recognise that small groups have a variety of different needs. Some groups may be keen to expand and develop new services, whilst others may simply want help to continue as they are.
We offer services that can be adapted to suit your needs. We provide an advice and information service to groups including access to MVSC's library and funding databases. We can also offer a more intensive service working with your group over a longer period of time to help you work through a wide range of development issues.
We can help with
- setting up a new group or project
- constitutions and governance issues
- charitable registration
- roles and responsibilities of management committees

The development service is available to any voluntary or community group based in Merton or providing services to benefit Merton's residents.
