Welcome to Voluntary Action Melton

Voluntary Action Melton acts as a Community Hub for Melton Borough, providing a gateway to services to support, develop and promote local voluntary and community groups.

We provide a range of services directly to the people and communities of Melton Borough and also act as a point of access to services provided by Voluntary Action LeicesterShire.

Voluntary Action Melton's services include: a Community Transport Scheme transporting people who cannot access public transport; a Befriending Service for older people and people with disabilities; a Carers' Project providing information and support; a Pyramid Project building confidence and self-esteem in children; a Gardening Project for those no longer able to look after their own garden and a Funds and Figures project to help Community Groups access resources.

We provide a focus for local people who wish to volunteer to support local communities, and we work in partnership with Voluntary Action LeicesterShire to provide people with wider volunteering opportunities.

Voluntary Action Melton also works with a range of partners and is committed to ensuring that every individual, group or community is enabled to play an active part in society. We promote new initiatives and act as a link between statutory agencies and the voluntary sector.

We facilitate a district forum, Community LinX, which provides a platform for the local voluntary and community sector to link into local partnerships and decision making structures - such as Melton Community Partnership.

Voluntary Action Melton hosts the Stronger Communities project. This project aims to strengthen the community spirit in the priority areas of the town through starting new projects and getting more people involved in volunteering.

We provide meeting space and office space for hire and practical support such as equipment loan and secretarial services from typing to ticket production.

Voluntary Action Melton is open to the public from 9am to 2pm Monday to Friday so please feel free to drop in and see us. Alternatively, appointments can be arranged outside these times if necessary.
