About our membership and how to become a member

Bolton CVS is a ‘local infrastructure organisation’ (LIO)

We work alongside Bolton’s Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise sector (VCSE); supporting them to do what they exist to do, as well as they possibly can.

Through our membership we see ourselves as a gateway into (not the gatekeepers of!) the boroughs magnificent VCSE sector! 

Membership is free of charge and it is simple to apply.

By becoming a member of Bolton CVS, you get access to our team of dedicated Development Officers who can support you with everything from volunteer recruitment and volunteer management best practice, to governance, safeguarding, funding and bid writing, book keeping, project planning, social media and so much more!

The Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise sector (VCSE) is a critical deliverer of life changing services, and an increasingly powerful influence for good across the Borough of Bolton. Bolton 2030 is a vision for the future which sees its people and communities as active, connected and prosperous.

Working together the VCSE sector can achieve so much, be a huge voice for change, and play its part in making Bolton the place that we can all be proud of.

Bolton CVS is a membership organisation for the VCSE sector which connects, and communicates the aspirations and efforts of this vital sector. Being a member ensures that you can play your part in something truly transformational.

Together we can achieve so much more than we would if we worked alone.
