Becoming a member of PAVS

What does it mean?

PAVS’ legal structure requires membership. Our members are able to nominate and elect our Trustees each year at our Annual General Meeting

Why become a member? 

  • Discounts on training courses and events
  • Free Governance Health Check
  • Early Bird Access to the Annual Funding Fair
  • Have a stake in the Third Sector
  • Stability from a team of friendly faces 
  • Secure space to share experiences – help each other 
  • Feel supported – having a reference point – reassurance
  • Feed into national network – representation into Wales 
  • Be part of the identity of the county: sense of what is happening in Pembrokeshire and the issues that arise 

How do we join?

The membership year runs from 1st January to 31st December. If your organisation would like to become a member, please complete the application form below and email a signed copy of your organisation’s constitution to maudie.hughes@pavs.org.uk. Membership of PAVS is free!

We currently have two types of membership available – Full Membership and Associate Membership.

Full Membership is open to charitable, voluntary and social enterprise organisations who are based in and run from premises in Pembrokeshire, with the committee or management group also operating within the county e.g. The Paul Sartori Foundation. Full members are able to nominate candidates to stand as Trustees on the PAVS Board, and vote at the Annual General Meeting.

Associate Membership is open to charitable, voluntary and social enterprise organisations who have a ‘parent’ body located outside of Pembrokeshire, but have a local committee or management group delivering services and activities within Pembrokeshire e.g. Age Cymru – Dyfed

Your membership is important to us. A strong membership base gives us the mandate to continue to represent and support the third sector in Pembrokeshire, providing a range of locally accessible development, funding and volunteering services that are free of charge or discounted at the point of delivery. All third sector organisations can become members of PAVS for free – a small donation to help cover our running costs would be appreciated!

Office Hours

Our staff are now working in a hybrid way which means they may not be in the office, but working from other venues or home working. Due to changes in the way we now work, we are not holding meetings or running training events in person from our premises. However, if you wish to meet with a member of staff then please email them directly or call their business mobile number. The staff contact list is kept up to date with the most recent information.

If you do need to call at our premises, we are open from 9.00am to 5.00pm Monday to Thursday and 9.00am to 4.30pm on a Friday (except on Bank Holidays). Between 9am and 10am, and after 2pm, Monday to Thursday and all day Friday you may need to ring the bell (situated on the right hand side of the door). If you are just delivering mail, then please use the letter box on the front door.

Thank you for your ongoing support.
