Send us your news

Our website is designed to support the growth of the voluntary and community sector. We help Wakefield District's voluntary and community organisations to share news with other groups and our strategic partners. Submit your news story for publication by email to ask@vawd.org.uk with ‘wakefieldvcs.org news' in the subject title. Please send your story at least ten working days before you need it to be published. Alternatively, post your story to:

Format of stories

We prefer to keep our news stories published on this website quite short and easy to read. Write your content in accessible language, as though you are having a conversation with the reader, and spell any acronyms out in full. Ensure you add to your story how readers can get more information. Please also supply your contact details. Information may be edited prior to publication to meet our editorial guidelines.  

E-bulletin

We distribute an e-bulletin during the first week of each month. You need to submit your news story for potential inclusion by the 25th of the preceding month. For example, for the August edition you would send us your story before 25 July.
