Voluntary Action Arun & Chichester
Voluntary Action Arun & Chichester
Our vision is to see a strong, vibrant voluntary and community sector that supports, inspires and empowers individuals and communities throughout Arun and Chichester.
We do this through 1-1 support and advice, training and networking events, helping groups to start-up and develop their work.
Great VAAC Team Away Day at the National Trust Offices in Slindon yesterday. Thank you for hosting us and showing us around the estate.
We would like your views as we look forward and design our strategy for 2025 – 2028. Let us know what you think of our mission and objectives
Cervical screening is one of the best ways to protect yourself from cervical cancer. The screening test checks the health of the cervix and helps find any abnormal changes before they can turn into cancer – it’s not a test for cancer, it’s a test to help prevent cancer.

You are invited along to our next Coffee Connections, our peer-to-peer support drop-in sessions for anyone working with or supporting volunteers. Join us for coffee, biscuits and a chance to chat to other volunteer managers/co-ordinators. A chance to meet your local colleagues, ask questions or raise concerns, or just to catch up informally over a cuppa! Directions: On entering the driveway to Slindon College, instead of bearing left for the college keep driving straight ahead (signs to National Trust). Please park in the yard in the first entrance on the left and walk through the archway to the buildings.
