VCQA red logo

VCQA red logoVODA is delighted to announce that our submission to The National Association for Voluntary and Community Action (NAVCA) was successful, and we have gained The Volunteer Centre Quality Accreditation.

The Volunteer Centre Quality Accreditation (VCQA) is the quality mark for organisations delivering the five local Volunteer Centre functions. It provides assurance to members of the public seeking volunteering opportunities, volunteer involving organisations, partner, commissioner and funding organisations, that the holder provides a high quality and effective local service. Accreditation takes place via a peer assessment and is valid for three years.

We’d like to express our thanks to all Staff, Funders, Partners, Trustees and Volunteers for their contributions.

If you’d like to find out more about The Volunteer Centre and the work we do, please have a look at the volunteering section of our website which includes current Volunteering Opportunities and Support and Advice for Voluntary Organisations.
