“v” is  a national youth volunteering programme for 16 – 25 year olds.  It’s delivered across Wirral exclusively by The v Team at Wirral CVS.  It aims to make volunteering a compelling choice for young people by tapping into their passions and concerns.

A Youth Action Team has been recruited so young people can have a say and steer the project to be more accountable to their aspirations.

The v Team offer a personalised service to match young people with inspiring opportunities which fit into their lives, further their ambitions and indule their passions.

Services include:

• Youth Action Teams – a network of youth ambassadors to champion volunteering at a local level and inspire their peers to volunteer.
• vInvolved Teams – a network of youth experts on the ground who will encourage more community organisations to open their doors to young volunteers.
• vInolved Projects – a diverse range of innovative projects that tap into young people’s passions, cares and concerns
• vPassport – a personal online tool for young people to record their volunteering experiences and skilled gained.
• National and Local Annual Awards Celebrations to recognise young volunteers’ achievements.
