About Us

Supporting the voluntary sector and communities across Leeds

At Voluntary Action Leeds (VAL), we work to support the third sector in Leeds and help communities to thrive. We are dedicated to empowering charities, community groups, social enterprises and volunteers by providing the services, skills and tools they need to make a real difference.

We believe strong organisations create strong communities. By supporting the people and groups who make a difference every day, we help build a more inclusive, connected and thriving Leeds.

Doing Good Leeds Partnership

Some of our projects, networks and forums are delivered as part of the Doing Good Leeds partnership.

Through this collaborative approach, we bring organisations together, share knowledge and create opportunities to tackle challenges across the city on one platform.

You can explore these programmes at doinggoodleeds.org.uk—and while they sit under the partnership brand, they continue to reflect the same high-quality support and expertise you can expect from Voluntary Action Leeds.
