What does the voluntary and community sector contribute to health

NACVS - Changing Lives

"CVS are at the very heart of the local voluntary and community sector – leading local activity and linking up across sectors. Without CVS, organisations falter and individuals miss life-changing opportunities. Put simply, CVS make things happen."

This short publication gives a flavour of what CVS do, working behind the scenes, to ensure the long-term future of essential services. Most of all, it is about the lives of local people, which are touched, enriched and transformed as a result of their work.

Much of the work that CVS's do focuses on several key areas: services and support; development work; liaison; representation; and strategic partnerships. This publication looks at what this means on the ground.
