About VCA
Who we are
VCA is a charitable company limited by guarantee,
and is part of the Volunteer Centre Network Scotland, supported by funding from the Scottish Government and Aberdeenshire
Council. We have 3 office bases, in Fraserburgh, Inverurie and Banchory, serving the North, Central and South regions of the
shire.
Our Aims
All volunteer centres
in Scotland work towards a set of national outcomes closely linked to the Scottish Excutive's Volunteering Strategy. Work
to achieve these outcomes is tailored to the local situation in Aberdeenshire.
The national outcomes are as follows:
1. People are enthused by, and involved in volunteering, particularly young people
2. Volunteering is barrier free,
inclusive to all and embraces diversity
3. Volunteers have a good experience of volunteering and are welcomed and valued
wherever they volunteer
4. The value and impact of volunteering is measured and recognised in local and national policy
development and community planning
5. Volunteer Centres, and the VC/VDS partnership, have in place good governance, organisational
standards and infrastructure to ensure continuous improvement, growth and development
