The National Council for Voluntary Organisations has announced a “restructuring” that will lead to a net loss of about 30 jobs. Many of the jobs to be lost will be at Capacitybuilders, the agency that provides advice and support for charities, whose closure was announced last month by the Cabinet Office. The organisation is also losing a substantial proportion of its funding from the Office for Civil Society’s Strategic Partners Programme. NCVO Chief Executive Stuart Etherington blamed the redundancies on “reductions in public funding.”
