Volunteering And Skills Connections

Volunteering and Skills Connections (VASC) is a Great Yarmouth Borough Council initiative. The team support residents with volunteering, achieving qualifications, and develop new skills.

Building on Success

VASC builds on the success of the Spirit 2012-funded Cultural Connections Volunteering project, which:

• improved life chances for young people
• removed barriers to volunteering
• celebrated local arts, heritage and culture

Over 70 organisations and charities joined CCV, creating a vibrant volunteering community. Now, VASC takes this further.

Through the UK Social Prosperity Fund, VASC expands support to include skills and employment, focusing on individuals who want to:

• retrain or upskill
• transition into or sustain employment
• improve their current work situation
• access basic skills or formal qualifications
• explore a wide range of volunteering opportunities
