It was formed to better coordinate responses to emergencies by the voluntary sector, ensuring vulnerable communities receive timely support. The VCSEP's activities include gathering intelligence on unmet needs, providing support services when demand exceeds capacity, and facilitating collaboration through regional multi-agency and national volunteering cells. It works with government and statutory agencies to support vulnerable communities during crises like COVID-19.
