New Organisations
Exeter CVS recognises the importance of encouraging new groups which are developing to meet a local need. New organisations within their first year of operation can apply to receive their first year of membership free of charge. This is offered at the discretion of the trustees. If you think your organisation fits into this category, please complete the standard application form (link to PDF) and return it to us for consideration.
Existing Organisations
For organisations that have been operating for more than 12 months, we will offer an initial meeting to look at your needs and identify whether Exeter CVS will be able to meet those needs. If we are able to signpost you to the information you require and you do not need any further support you will not have to join Exeter CVS. However, if you require further ongoing support and Exeter CVS staff are able to offer this, you will be asked to become a member before receiving further free support. For further details on the benefits of becoming a member of Exeter CVS, please visit the membership benefits pages.
