Welcome
Rugby Council for Voluntary Service is a charity. Our aim is to support local voluntary and community organisations.
This could mean providing groups with advice and information or giving them an opportunity to air issues that are affecting their work.
What we do and how we do it is largely down to our members, after all the service we provide is for them. Please browse our site and make use of the resources available here. If you need more information, why not pop into the office?
