The East Riding VCSE Network
Introduction
Hundreds of community organisations operate in our region both large and small - offering safe spaces and critical support to the communities they work in.
These groups know their communities best and provide responsive support that makes a difference but also inform wider statutory services that can enable shared solutions.
Being part of the East Riding VCSE Network creates a stronger voice and influence change that builds on the strengths of East Riding Communities.
