Membership

Before we get started...

Who we are: The Voluntary and Community Sector Assembly (VCSA) is an independent organisation of voluntary and community groups in Shropshire and the surrounding area. The VCSA is a way for members to meet and exchange information, ideas and good practice; discuss common issues and support each other in delivering services; develop shared plans and work more closely with public sector bodies such as Shropshire Council. How do we collect information from you and for what purpose? Details of Assembly members will be held on the VCS Assembly database. VCS will use these contact details to circulate information including invitations, newsletters and other relevant items relating to the work of the Assembly. Additionally, we collect organisational-level information on members in order to effectively communicate the value of the sector in aggregate statistics. The VCSA website and the data collected via the VCSA is hosted by Shropshire Council. The information will not be shared with third parties outside Shropshire Council without seeking the permission of the individuals. The information will be updated periodically and any organisation can ask to have their details amended or removed from the database at any time.
