Mind Your Own Business

Three Directors of the Willow Wood Company have attended the first MYOB training day commissioned by the Community Land Unit of Highlands and Islands Enterprise at Blair Drummond near Stirling.

David Hughes, Tom Meiklejohn and Jim Haluch participated in this excellent programme covering the essentials of operating a community business.

Trainers Ruth and Ian from the Land Unit led a full day of presentations and discussion at introductory and advanced levels covering Governance, Communication, Finance, Employment, Working with volunteers and Securing a sustainable future.

Our group joined other delegated from Edinburgh, Moffat, Aberfoyle, Stronachlachar, Dunblane and even from as far away as Dunbar.

It was a lively day with much discussion and exchange of ideas and the success bodes well for the other MYOB days taking place throughout the HIE area.

A positive suggestion from all the participants was the need to take the learnings of the day back to directors and members who had not had the privilege of attending.  The Willow Wood group heartily applauds the Land Unit's initiative and recommends the courses to anyone involved in community enterprises.
