Membership

Join our 2500 - strong membership base across the boroughs of St Helens and Halton who make Halton & St Helens Voluntary and Community Action what it is!

Our members represent a wide range of interests in the Voluntary, Community, Faith and Social Enterprise sector (VCFSE). They are at the forefront of our minds when we develop new activities, events and services.

Your organisation will be able to influence our work, express your views on our progress and help build a strong and effective VCFSE network for our boroughs.

Our members elect a Board of Trustees to run Halton & St Helens VCA on your behalf, and we are accountable to you.

As a registered Free member of VCA, you can enjoy an array of benefits and support.

I would recommend that any local voluntary organisation or charity join HSHVCA as they are an invaluable resource for so many of the issues that come up for the voluntary sector.
