Come celebrate with us!

2026 marks two very special milestones for Wolverhampton Voluntary & Community Action (WVCA): 20 years of SUIT and 10 years of our Social Prescribing Service.

We’d love you to join us for a special celebration bringing together the people who have helped shape, support and benefit from these two important services over the years.
