Watford Asian Community Care delivers a range of social and health services for South Asian communities in Watford, Three Rivers and Hertsmere. They have a new CEO in Jayant Tanna and this morning I drove over to the WACC offices to meet with Jayant and learn more about his plans for the future of WACC. I was very impressed with Jayant who seems to be exactly the sort of person that a healthy voluntary sector should aim to attract.

After meeting with Jayant, I hurried back to my own office to meet with John Casstles (our Treasurer) to talk through WCVS’s 2007-08 accounts, bookkeeping systems, investments and financial controls.

I also did some testing on the ICT platform being built for voluntary groups in Watford. There is lots still to do but it is full of promise.
