We're on a mission to improve access to community services and help people to find local support services and activities that can help improve their health and wellbeing.
This directory is managed by our local partner, Northumberland CVA, and lists the services, groups and activities of local VCSE organisations.
Whatever it is you're looking for - there's something for you.
Maybe you’re wanting to meet new people - or need some advice for a friend or family member? Or perhaps you want to find out about exercise or social clubs in your area, or how to get involved in a local charity?
Community services can provide specialist support on a range of topics, such domestic abuse, helping to manage your finances, housing issues or bereavement support.
You can find details of local services and support, share information with friends and family, or bookmark and print out service information.
Northumberland CVA (Community Voluntary Action) is a membership charity and a local infrastructure organisation. Supporting local communities, they enable people by providing support to help local charities, voluntary groups, and social enterprises to operate safely and legally, and help them develop and deliver their own services.
Simply Connect's digital services support over 100,000 organisations across the UK.
Born out of a charity ourselves, with over 50 years' combined experience of working with the voluntary and community sector (VCSE), we have a clear Corporate Social Responsibility Policy - one that invests back into the local VCSE sector. For more details, please visit our website.
