NAVCA's mission is to strengthen and champion social action through effective local voluntary and community sector infrastructure.
We believe every community in England benefits from a thriving local voluntary sector, strengthened through excellent local support and development. We want to make sure that anyone in England who wants to volunteer (or start a charity or social enterprise, or create a voluntary organisation) has a place to go for good, local, advice and support. We will continue to speak for and with our members, providing a clear voice, effective influence and engaged support amongst key stakeholders, locally and nationally.
Our objectives for 2020-25 are:
- to be able to demonstrate and champion the quality of local sector support and development, as delivered by every member of NAVCA.
- to ensure the local VCSE in every part of England has access to the quality support and development services it needs, either through a NAVCA member, a non-member local infrastructure body or an effective alternative model of provision.
- to act as an innovative national infrastructure organisation, with credibility and influence as the national voice of local infrastructure.
