NICVA is the Northern Ireland Council for Voluntary Action, an umbrella body of voluntary, community and charitable groups in Northern Ireland.

We Provide over 1000 affiliated members with the information, advice and training on a wide range of issues from management consultancy and finance, through to policy development and lobbying.

In our work we adopt a community development approach and attempt to empower local communities to pursue their own needs and agendas.

We believe that the voluntary sector can play a critical role in developing a democratic and pluralist society, bridging traditional divisions and building a broader consensus for the future.For further information on NICVA and its work you can visite our website.
