© Keighley & District Volunteer Centre
Action Point Community Support Services (Formerly known as Keighley & District Volunteer Centre) is a registered charity that has been working at the heart of the community since 2001. Our charity number is 1090144
We currently deliver a range of services that support various client groups. This work is undertaken in people's own homes, out in the community, within volunteering placements across the district and within day services.
We provide a person-centred approach as it provides a foundation for our caring and responsive service. We listen to each individual to establish their wants, needs, aspirations, religious and cultural beliefs when offering assistance. We always focus on what people can do so we can continue to build on their abilities and strengths and help them maximise their potential.
We value the diversity of our community and all our staff and service users and we believe that everyone has a right to be their full authentic self without fear of discrimination, criticism or judgement.
