It seems a sensible way forward if a bit tricky in terms of <em>stepping on existing toes</em>. We'd be glad to hear back from your when there is more light to shed on the process and how things will look from perspective of the individual volunteer managers come next spring. Don't be shy :) Dave – Thanks for confirming CB’s position. It seems a sensible way forward if a bit tricky in terms of stepping on existing toes.

We've been careful not to step on the toes of existing, short training courses which are already being funded or sold. So, fewer people but much greater depth and quality of support. Hope to leave a legacy of very skilled and committed volunteer managers willing to share skills and advocate for greater resourcing.
