Stephen Hughes's Company Details
3VA supports and develops the voluntary and community sector in Eastbourne, Lewes District and Wealden. We do this by helping new groups to set up, find funding, improve their governance, and by providing training. We also provide networking opportunities that enable groups to share experience and expertise, and support the sector to have a say in policy and local decision making. 3VA builds the capacity of the sector, enabling people and organisations to do things for themselves. Local volunteers alone contribute nearly 90,000 hours of their time every week, which is worth over £50 million per year to the community, and the sector needs specialist support to grow and be sustainable. As a charity ourselves, we know the importance of getting low cost, high quality support and believe our work is essential to the future of the local voluntary and community sector. Our work broadly fits into five main areas: 1) Development 2) Support 3) Networking 4) Representation 5) Strategic Partnership Work
