ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Objectives and aims
Throughout 24125 EDVA has continucd to provide services and activities that align with our vision of
people working together in East DunbartonshiTe. putting a thriving third sector at its core. We are
membership organisation and our members aTe local community organisations and charities. Primarily we
focus on 4 key themes of activity,.
l. Building capacity
2. Acting as a conduit of knowlcdge-sharing
3. Supporting a strong Third Sector voice
4. Enabling positiv¢ and productive connections
What we expected to do, Outcomes and Achievements:
We continucd to focus on the above arcas, with a variety of activities taking place across the year and
summarised below:
Building Capacity:
We increased our membership to 167 organisations. Evaluations from various grant distributions that EDVA
have administercd dcmonstrate positivc impact on communities and organisations. We provided training in
areas such as "BecomAng a Charity" Beginners Guide to Becoming a Community Group and First Aid
Training. We also added to the inforn]ation resources on our website, however this was limited by staff tim¢
as w¢ do not hav¢ a dedicated member of staff to deal with our website info and is an area w¢ will increase
in 25126. We provid¢d advic¢/support to 116 unique groups (an incr¢as¢ on last year). We provided the
following support:
Fundraising - 61 organisations
Becoming constituted - 2 organisation5
Becoming a charity - 3 organisations
Gov¢rnance advice - 41 organisations
Oth¢r advice/ support - 58 organisations
We recruited 407 new volunteers. We recruited 172 who were either seeking additional or new volunteering
opportunities. This represents an increase on last year, bucking the general national trend of a downward
turn in volunteering. This may be due to other demographic factors in the area making the population more
likely to volunteer. However we believe that as other pressures continue such as cost of living and also an
increasing older population who may be working longer or providing care, this pattern may not continue
longer terni.
We ran 3 volunteer fairs and attended 15 events with inforniation stands, We had a weekly presence in job
centr¢s. W¢ ran a Volunte¢T Recognition Awards ceremony, with support from the National Lottery Awards
for All, and support from local sponsors. This received very positive feedback as an opportunity to recognise
the great contributions that organisations and volunteers make to their communities, and as an opportunity to
promote voluntecring.
We recruited 158 Saltire volunteers, an increase from 153 last year. We helped 6 social enterprises to start in
24125. Wc awardcd funding to 15 social cntcrprises and 3 Young Enteryrising Schools grants via the Social
Enterprise Grant we admillistered.

Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31 March 2025
We also invcsted in our own capacity building with all staff attended at least 2 training sessions in 24/25.
Topics have included ASSIST training, First Aid Training, Empowering Endings Training, training on
changes to Charity Law and to the Disclosure Syste￿ ED Economic Recovery workshop, Firstport Build It
Funding Webinar. Autism awareness, Health Issues in the Community training.
KnoTrvledge SbariDg:
EDVA have contributed to various consultations at national and local levels. Thes¢ have included
consultations on charity law, and autism strategy and we have shared inforn]ation with the sector in relation
to consultations via our weekly newsletters and our networking meetings. We have facilitated contributions
from the local Third Sector to the new HSCP strategic plan via promotion of a survey and a dcdicated
consultation session. Our ASN Network created a resources directory to support work being carried out by
the HSCP.
We negotiated a more open process for third sector to apply for funding via the Scottish Governments Whole
Families Wellbeing Fund which is held by the Council. As a result, EDV A provided a framework for grant
applications and scoring, publi¢is¢d the fund to local organisations, sat on thc awards panel and are Icnding
our insight in Telation to appropriatc ¢valuation of projccts. Our staff have shared and increased their
knowledge through attendance at the Third Sector Interface Network's staff conference and th¢ Chief
Officers Development Day, as well as participating in the Network's online Slack forum
Supporting Strong Third Sector Voice:
We help ensure that local organisations are aware of opportunities to make th¢ir voice heard by sharing
inforniation regarding consultations through e-noticeboard, social media, third S￿tOr networks meetings et
on a frequent and regular basis. We shared infonnation on the potential impact of proposed effici¢n¢y
savings on commissioned third sector organisations, EDVA participate in the Community Planning
Partnership and the HSCP Strategic Planning Group, and the IJB. as w¢ll as a number of other partnership
groups to ty to help ensure there arc opportunitics for Third Sector voice.
Enabling Positive And Productive Connectiolls:
EDVA ensures that opportunities to contribute to local priorities are publicised and promoted to the Third
Sector e.g. by publicising surveys/forums etc around council budget consultation, HSCP strategic planning,
Local Delivery Plan etc. We distributed funding awarded via East Dunbartonshire Council from the UK
Shared Prosperity Fund to 15 groups through our Social Enterprise Grant Fund and provided 10 social
enterprise organisations with information about Business Gateway and Firstport, to help support their
development and growth.
Our staff worked with East Dunbartonshire Council to promote Carbon Literacy training and staff also
undertook th¢ training. We also jointly with EDC supported a local organisation's (successful) bid to secure
Scottish Government Climatc Hub funding. EDVA distributed a grant fund to 7 groups. supporting local
food growing and community nutrition projects with funding provided by GGC Health Board via the HSCP,
working collaboratively with staff from the Council and Health Improvement teasn to assess applications and
makc awards.
We worked with the HSCP to advise on local organisations who might have an interest in providing a No
One Dies Alone projec( resulting An 2 local organisations being awarded funding to deliver this work. We
continuc to facilitate network me¢tings on various themes and ran 9 network meetings An 24125 and we also
ran our annual conference, where topics included talks on the economic value of the third sector and
community wealth building.
Challenges and Changes:
Page 5

East Dunbartonshire Voluntary Action
(scio)
Report of the Trustees
for the Year Ended 31 IKarcb 2025
Our key challenges Temain largely the same as in previous years: greater demand for our services with no
increase in resources and increased costs. Wc have limited funding for staff and therefore sev¢ral of our staff
need to deal with a huge variety of enquiries including areas where they may have limited knowledge. We
continue to fmd meaningful engagement with some statutory agencies challenging. Often discussions
regarding decisions relevant to the sector take place without third sector input being r¢quested with enough
advance notice or not sought until plans have effectively already been made, giving us limited opportunity to
consult with the sector or input appropriatcly.
In view of the continuing financial pressures on ststutory agencies it is important that realistic opportunities
for real consultation and service re-design are put in place with the sector in order to deliver joined up
services that value the role that both statutory and third sector agencies play in providing the services the
local community needs.
Learning for the Future:
W¢ are in a continual learning process but highlighting two points of learning for the future - in 24125 we
had the opportunity to increase the number of grant funds we administered on behalf of funders and lend our
cxperience to h¢lp d¢v¢lop a new grant process in East Dunbartonshire. We know we can administer grants
effectively. Going forward we would be keen to encourage further opportunities to use this experience
through collaboration with fund¢rs to grow our work in this area.
We are also acutely conscious of the pressures of increasing costs against funding that is in real tenns
reducing. As a consequence, we need to continue to ¢xaminc what activities best help us achieve our aim5
and maintain our focus on supporting a thriving third sector in East Dunbartonshire within limited resources.
Future Plans:
EDV A will continue to be mindful that our funding limits the size of our staff capacity. Retiral of a member
of staff at the end of 24125 has provided an opportunity to do some internal re-organisation of work and in
25126 this should increase our ability to grow our engagem¢nL particularly in our online rcsource5. We will
continue to work collaboratively with other TSI'S in Scotland aiming to rnaximise the sharing of resources
and knowledge. We will continue to provide training and advice and administer funds on behalf of the
Scottish Government and, where the opportunity presents itself, on behalf of statutory agencies. Despite the
continuing challenging environment that EDVA operates in we will continue to provid¢ a central point of
support infomiation and advocacy for the local third sector and those wishing to engage with thG s¢ctor.
