Safeguarding Medway’s Voluntary Future | 111
In this landmark episode of The Mic Drop Club, in proud partnership with Medway Voluntary Action (MVA), we bring together a powerhouse panel of leaders and changemakers to explore one central theme: how can Medway’s voluntary sector thrive amid constant change and create opportunities for the next generation?
Hosted by Douglas Hamandishe, this special roundtable includes insights from:
• Cllr Vince Maple, Leader of Medway Council
• Cllr Teresa Murray, Deputy Leader of Medway Council
• Jane Howard, CEO, MVA
• Clare Saunders, Programmes Director, MVA
• Mark Wicker, Project Lead on Joy, MVA
• Eithne Rynne, CEO of KAB & Chair of Medway’s VCS Leaders Network
This episode delves into the significance of data-driven approaches, the power of storytelling, and the importance of inclusive engagement with all sectors of society. Be part of the conversation that is shaping the future of Medway and beyond.
Together, we explore the realities of funding pressures, the changing needs of communities, the power of partnerships, and why volunteering remains one of Medway’s most powerful tools for community resilience.
Key Takeaways:
• Diversify to Survive: Grants alone aren’t enough; organisations must explore social enterprise, individual giving, and business partnerships.
• Collaborate to Thrive: Shared resources, co-bidding, and joint service delivery build resilience and reduce duplication.
• Invest in People: Volunteers and staff are the sector’s greatest assets, supporting, training, and recognising them is non-negotiable.
• Digitally Forward: From online services to impact measurement, technology is a game-changer for modern voluntary action.
• Prove the Impact: Data, storytelling, and advocacy are essential to influence policy and sustain long-term support.
Inspired by the discussion? Join the movement to shape Medway’s future. Whether you’re part of a local organisation, a funder, or simply someone who wants to make a difference, now is the time to act.
