NCVO MP Secondment Scheme

NCVO’s MP Secondment Scheme has been running since 1999. The Secondment Scheme offers MPs an opportunity to grapple with the everyday workings of the voluntary and community sector. Over a 12-18 month period MPs are offered the opportunity to spend at least ten days with a host voluntary or community organisation, gaining experience of all the organisation’s core activities — everything from fundraising to research to working with volunteers and users.
