VSA

VSA & Centurion Enter Partnership We are excited to announce Centurion - UK & Europe Region as an annual charity partner, which will include a programme of staff engagement and fundraising activities during the course of the year! Recently, we caught up with Centurion staff across their North-East sties, and they are excited to be involved. "Centurion is proud to support VSA as our chosen charity for 2025. Their vital work makes a meaningful difference to the greater Aberdeen community, and together, we’re committed to raising funds and awareness for the essential services they provide." We are hugely grateful to everyone at Centurion for choosing to support VSA in this way. To find out more about VSA and the services we provide, simply visit our website at vsa.org.uk

A huge thank you to our good friends at The Capitol Building for once again supporting our Easter Egg Appeal! This egg-sellent selection of chocolate goodies will bring some Easter joy to those we support. There's still time to support our appeal - donations are being accepted at our Mercat Bookshop (Castle Street, Mon-Fri 10am-3pm) or to arrange for one of our team to collect from your workplace, simply email fundraising@vsa.org.uk

This month has been VSA's birthday - did you know that we've now been caring for the people of Aberdeen and the North-East for 155 years? As in previous years, our supporters have celebrated by hosting a VSA Tea Party with their colleagues! Pictured are our good friends at Ithaca Energy who also provided some wonderful cakes for those within our services to enjoy - thank you so much!
