Then come and participate in NICVA's policy fora. NICVA’s policy fora are held as part of the Vital Links Programme with the aim of increasing the interaction and understanding of the key institutions, the voluntary and community sector and foster and promote positive engagement.
The policy fora are chaired by policy experts in each subject and aim to meet 3-4 times a year in NICVA and venues across the country. Membership is free to and is open to any voluntary and community sector organisation or individual with an interest in these topics. Each of the forum meetings will have a theme and/or a speaker.
Marsh Insurance will give a presentation at this forum meeting on volunteering and insurance considerations for organisations.

Getting here and Parking
NICVA has a number of free parking spaces available for those attending events. Unfortunately these can't be reserved and are available on a first come basis. NICVA's spaces are clearly marked and we would ask that visitors only use spaces allocated to NICVA when attending an event.
Parking is also available on Duncairn Gardens and surrounding areas within close walking distance. NICVA is also a short walk from Yorkgate Train Station and you can easily catch a bus from the city centre (no 1D) direct to Duncairn Gardens, or (no 61 and 64) to Cityside Centre (a few minutes walk).
The Vital Links project is part-financed by the European Union's European Regional Development Fund through the EU Programme for Peace and Reconciliation (PEACE III) managed by the Special EU Programmes Body. The Special EU Programmes Body is the Managing Authority for the European Union's PEACE III Programme.
