We are delighted to inform you that Salford CVS has recently achieved the Volunteer Centre Quality Accreditation (VCQA), demonstrating the quality of their offer and impact in supporting local voluntary, community and social enterprises across Salford. Accreditation is awarded for three years, and is provided following independent assessment of a portfolio of evidence provided against a set of criteria based around the Five Functions of Volunteer Centres.
In achieving the VCQA, Salford CVS has demonstrated it delivers each of these functions to a high quality standard, that it is responsive to, and embedded within the needs of the local voluntary, community and social enterprise sector, and is committed to working in partnership.
The VCQA is a quality mark that provides confidence to local communities, voluntary and community organisations and local strategic partners, funders and commissioners. We are very pleased to share that Salford CVS's assessment showed its particular strengths in: Strategic Development of Volunteering, Good Practice Development and the Voice of Volunteering were we exceeded requirements.
