Welcome
Halton and St Helens is packed full of amazing people working together to tackle the issues that affect our community: from food poverty to mental health.
Our member organisations make a difference to thousands of people every single day and HSHVCA supports them with invaluable training, advice and representation.
We provide them with practical help that could help your organisation thrive, too - from support in recruiting and managing volunteers, raising funds, to advice on governance and setting up financial systems.
We are proud to connect more than 2,500 charities, community groups and social enterprises with the thousands of people who need them.
Find out how you can tap into our wealth of knowledge and experience - whether you are an organisation or a resident of Halton or St Helens looking to access some of the best services and groups.
