Joy is passionate about collaboration. You may have already seen her blog ‘Collaboration beats competition’. If you’re a keen collaborator, why not join the Hampshire and Isle of Wight VCSE Health and Care Alliance (HIVCA).

Over the last 15 years, I’ve seen first hand the difference that happens when organisations stop working in isolation and start working together. That’s exactly what the Hampshire and Isle of Wight VCSE Health and Care Alliance (HIVCA) is all about.

HIVCA brings together charities, community groups, social enterprises and voluntary organisations from across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight who all share the same ambition, improving the health and well-being of the people and communities we serve.

Whether you’re a small grassroots organisation supporting one neighbourhood or a larger charity working across the region, your experience, knowledge and community insight matter.
By joining HIVCA, you’ll become part of a growing network of organisations that believe we’re stronger together. Membership gives you the opportunities to:

• Connect with VCSE organisations working across health and care in Hampshire and IOW
• Influence future programmes, priorities, and the development of health and care services
• Hear about partnership opportunities, events and projects
• Share learning, celebrate successes and learn from organisations facing similar challenges.
• Add your voice to conversations that help shape the future of health and care across our region

Membership is completely free, and there’s no expectation about how much time you commit. You can engage as much or as little works for your organisation, whether that’s simply staying connected through our updates or actively getting involved in projects, events and discussions.
At its heart, HIVCA is about bringing people together. It’s about recognising that no single organisation has all the answers, but together we have the knowledge, expertise and passion to make a real difference.

If you’d like to be part of a supportive network that champions the VCSE sector and believes in the power of collaboration, we’d love to welcome you to HIVCA.
