To support our staff wellbeing and to follow Government advice, the SAVS team are working remotely. Our systems and ways of working are set up for this and we will continue to operate ‘business as usual’ where possible, to fully support the needs of the Community.
SAVS is an independent charity known as a council for voluntary service or CVS. That means we work behind the scenes to help local charities and community groups achieve their full potential.
We do this by:
We’ve been supporting not-for-profit groups in Southend for more than 30 years.
Engaging the community and promoting active citizenship.
Improving Mental Health through volunteering.
People helping people, one hour at a time.
Breaking loneliness and isolation amongst the elderly.
Supporting 8-12 year olds living in Central Southend.
Supporting families of 0-4s living in Southend.
Help shape the future of Southend.
Supporting the residents of Southend.
Crime reduction initiative
