NVYA supports young people aged 13 to 24 across Northamptonshire to get actively involved in their communities by volunteering their time and skills.  We run two levels of accreditation -  a local certificate for young people aged 13 to 15 and vinspired, the national youth volunteering programme, for young people aged 16 to 25. Since the organisation’s inception in 2000, we have worked with more than 5000 amazing young people, helping them to find out how they can make a difference in their world.  We've supported them in a wide range of volunteering opportunities and amazing youth-led activities all over the county.
