The next VAC and VCC co-chaired Camden CEOs & Camden Trustees Networks online meeting is on Monday, 16^th of November 2026 at 12:00.
Since 1907 Voluntary Action Camden has supported the voluntary and community sector in the London Borough of Camden. We do this by sharing information, fostering collaboration and providing practical expertise to both established and new voluntary organisations. We serve as a connection between the sector and decision-making bodies like the local Council and funders and work to promote a vibrant local community and the amazing work community groups are doing in Camden.
Rocket Science developed these resources as part of the We Make Camden MEL support programme, funded by London Borough of Camden.

The toolkit is free for Camden voluntary and community organisations to access. You do not need to be part of the funded live-support programme to use the resources. You can start with whichever question is most useful to you – there is no need to work through everything in order.
It was established by Voluntary Action Camden (VAC) and Volunteer Centre Camden (VCC) to help share skills, knowledge and enable peer support. VAC and VCC work to support the VCSE and understand the enormous contribution and importance trustees provide and this network will help provide valuable insight into the sector and help identify gaps, issues and future learning and development needs of trustees.
Launched on the 2nd May 2023, the CEO Network is for leaders of local voluntary sector organisations in Camden to discuss issues and ideas for the mutual benefit of the VCSE. The Network is there to encourage, guide, support and develop voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) sector leaders. Find out more on our dedicated CEO Network page.
For over 100 years, Voluntary Action Camden has been helping local residents and communities setup and manage groups, projects and activities that address local needs and opportunities. From choosing a legal structure to raising funds or securing premises, find out how we can help your group.
We are compiling useful information and resources to help you navigate your way through the Cost of Living Crisis. Visit our resources page to see how we can help and for the latest information and resources for the sector.
