Our Role:

KVA is part of a national network of over 250 local infrastructure bodies, known as Councils for Voluntary Service (CVS).  

We believe that infrastructure has a crucial role in helping to build strong, connected communities.  

We see infrastructure as based on three complementary and intertwined strands: capacity building, connecting and representation.
