Support for Groups

From a toddler group to a community transport scheme, from a residents association to a recycling project, all are examples of the ideas people in the community have had and which has been developed with the help of HVDA.

Such help is FREE and can range from a "one off" informal chat to long term support of up to a year and even longer.

The help can include providing a constitution, organising public meetings, offering resources such as photocopying, stationery and stamps, finding consultants and registering a group as a charity.

Advice and guidance on things like project evaluation and monitoring and the various protocols needed in running an organisation is also provided.

If you need any help or advice about running or starting a voluntary organisation, please contact our Project Development Officer – Peter Gowland.
