Voluntary Action East Renfrewshire

Voluntary Action, a membership organisation, was established in 1998, by volunteers from local community groups who wanted to create a one-stop shop that would support voluntary organisations and volunteering.

Voluntary Action was unique by being established to perform the dual role of a Volunteer Centre and a Council for the Voluntary Sector (CVS)

The operational boundaries of Voluntary Action matched those of the newly-formed East Renfrewshire council.

Voluntary Action remains unique today.

• It provides the only comprehensive service for volunteering and support for third sector organisations in East Renfrewshire.
• The guidance and advice offered is unbiased, as Voluntary Action has no financial or contractural interests in the organisations that are supported.
