Voluntary Action Camden

We offer a range of free or low cost services to local voluntary and community groups.  We always encourage groups to join us as members as this can significantly reduce the cost of some services – eg. room bookings and training courses. Click here to find out more about joining VAC as a member.

We also have office space to rent.  We currently have a ground floor office space available – competitively priced and available immediately.  Click here to find out more or email knunan@vac.org.uk
