As we look back on the year, we’re proud of the remarkable milestones we achieved and grateful for the unwavering support that made it all possible. We have put together a short video of our 2024 highlights which you can watch below or by clicking here.

We are pleased to announce the exciting news that following an extraordinary general meeting held by Welwyn Hatfield CVS (WHCVS) on Thursday 19 December, the merger between Communities 1st and WHCVS has been officially approved.  While both Boards made the decision to merge in November, we could only proceed once WHCVS members gave their approval at the EGM. The name of the charity will remain Communities 1st.
