North Northumberland Voluntary Forum

“Bringing community and voluntary groups together in North Northumberland”

The Berwick Voluntary Forum was established to promote and develop the work of voluntary organisations in the community. A dedicated centre at Tweed Street, Berwick-upon-Tweed was officially opened on 23 April 1998.

In the summer of 2016 the Berwick Voluntary Forum announced that the Voluntary Forum would officially change its name to North Northumberland Voluntary Form (NNVF). This name change reflected the evolving geographical focus of the Voluntary Forum.
