One of Southampton Voluntary Services (SVS) key aims is to represent the voluntary and community sector’s views and concerns to Southampton’s public bodies.
We have agreed a set of Guidelines for Representation which sets out some key principles and the role of Southampton Voluntary Services (SVS), individual representatives and voluntary and community organisations. The Guidelines were approved at the Community and Voluntary Sector Network Conference held on 1st October 2005 and noted by the Southampton Partnership at its meeting on 29th November 2005.
