Training
A key role of Kingston Voluntary Action is to identify and meet the training needs of Kingston's voluntary and community sector.
Capacity Building Training Programme
As part of Kingston's 3-year Infrastructure Support and Development Project funded by the BIG Lottery Fund, KVA has been running Capacity Building Training each autumn and spring.
