Volunteers' Week is a time to celebrate and say a special thank you to all the volunteers across Harrogate district for their dedication and the positive difference they make.

The Spring edition of our Care in Action Newsletter 'Time Well Spent Helping Others' includes news of funding opportunities for local charities and community groups and recent research confirming that 'enjoyment' is a key factor in volunteering. 

This Spring and Summer we are working with our partners to bring funding opportunities to local charities and community groups in Harrogate district

On 5 February 2019, THE LOCAL FUND for the Harrogate District partnership team was delighted to be joined by over 50 guests to celebrate the 1^st anniversary of THE LOCAL FUND, kindly hosted by the Majestic Hotel.

After eighteen months of hard work behind the scenes by the trustees of both Harrogate Community House Trust (HCH) and HARCVS, responsibility for the ownership and management of Harrogate Community House has now been transferred to HARCVS. 

HARCVS Introduction Sessions last for around an hour. The session comprises informal presentations by HARCVS staff on the support services we provide, our directories, THE LOCAL FUND for the Harrogate District and information about the local voluntary sector.

Our HARCVS Impact Report gives some examples of how we have helped communities, charities and volunteers over the last year.

17th July 2018 is an important day for the Harrogate District, especially for local charities, community and voluntary groups. THE LOCAL LOTTO for the Harrogate District has launched for ticket sales.

Friends are like-minded people and organisations who wish to encourage charitable giving and gain support for THE LOCAL FUND for the Harrogate District.  A ‘Friend’ would act as an ambassador at events and meetings to encourage support for the Fund.
