\"NCVO<\/a>The North East Lincolnshire Volunteer Centre<\/strong> hosted at VANEL in Grimsby has received formal re-recognition for its work as a Volunteer Centre by being awarded Wave 4 Volunteer Centre Quality Accreditation by the National Council for Voluntary Organisations.<\/p>\n

Volunteer Centre Quality Accreditation (VCQA) measures a Volunteer Centre\u2019s ability to deliver its services to a high standard and create a local environment in which volunteering can flourish.<\/p>\n

The standard recognises the North East Lincolnshire Volunteer Centre\u2019s achievements in matching people who want to volunteer with organisations who can use their help and advice, promoting volunteering, and helping local charities and other organisations to involve volunteers in their work,<\/p>\n

VANEL says: \u201cWe are delighted that VANEL has once again achieved Volunteer Centre Quality Accreditation and are proud that NCVO believes we\u2019re providing a high-quality service.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cWe had already held VCQA accreditation for the past three years, but the accreditation has been evolving so being assessed under the NCVO Wave 4 framework has been a valuable exercise to confirm that we continue to work effectively in our support for volunteers.<\/em><\/p>\n

The North East Lincolnshire Volunteer Centre is one of over 200 Volunteer Centres across England. (A list of all the VCQA-accredited Volunteer Centres can be found at: www.ncvo.org.uk\/ncvo-volunteering\/find-a-volunteer-centre<\/a>.)\u00a0 The VCQA assesses each Volunteer Centre against five key areas: strategic development of volunteering, good practice development, developing volunteering opportunities, voice of volunteering and volunteer brokerage.\u00a0 The North East Lincolnshire Volunteer Centre was pleased to be able to fully meet the standards required in each of these areas.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re always keen to speak to people about volunteering, so can find out more by giving us a call on 01472 231123, emailing volunteer@vanel.org.uk<\/a>, visiting the website at www.vanel.org.uk\/volunteer<\/a> or visit our Facebook page (www.facebook.com\/volunteergy<\/a> ).<\/p>\n
