Application for Membership & Membership Renewal
We are a registered Charity and a Company limited by guarantee whose
aim is to promote, support and help voluntary activity and community
provision in Gosport.
We are governed by an Executive Committee of Trustee/Directors who are
elected by our members at the Annual General Meeting each year.
Any voluntary/community group or organisation, which supports the aims
and objectives of GVA and operates or has an interest in Gosport, can
become a member.
Membership is FREE although as we are a company limited by guarantee
there is a requirement that, in the unlikely event that GVA were to
close down, all members are required to contribute £1 towards
any wind up costs. Membership gives access to all of our available
resources, e.g. newsletter, equipment loan, training, help and information
on funding, volunteering, business planning and practical help as well.
As a member you will have the right to become part of our governing body
and to determine our role within the community. When time and resources
become limited, you will be given preferential treatment. We spend
much of our time networking, negotiating and advising the voluntary,
statutory and independent sectors and, whilst we do not claim to represent
the voluntary sector, we are seen as being representative of it. Therefore,
the more members we have, the greater our credibility.
Absolutely not. The governance of your organisation will not change in
any way.
Complete the application form, which will give you immediate temporary
membership. At the next AGM, your membership will be ratified and you
will then have full voting rights.
