Dundee Volunteer and Voluntary Action is an independent charity that aims to
ensure the third sector (charities, social enterprises, community and voluntary
groups etc.) is robust, resilient and delivers high quality services for the
people of Dundee. We provide a wide range of support to third sector
organisations and have expertise in a wide range of skills and topics including
governance, funding, legislation, policy, planning and problem solving to name
just a few key areas. We have a primary role in ensuring the continuation and
development of a vibrant third sector in Dundee, and achieve this by supporting
organisations to be: well governed and managed to enable them to deliver quality
outcomes better connected and able to influence and contribute to public policy
Dundee Volunteer and Voluntary Action is a Registered Charity (No. SC000487) and
a Company Limited by Guarantee (No. SC093088), and began life as Dundee
Association for Social Services in 1953. The change in name was made in 1988 to
reflect our changing role as a member organisation promoting community welfare
more directly through voluntary action.
