VA-L's newsletter is distributed to over 600 voluntary and community groups in Leeds and the surrounding areas, to Leeds councillors as well as to all the local libraries.

Six issues are published each year, full of information to help organisations work effectively. It keeps readers informed about legislative and financial issues, guides them towards funding opportunities and provides news about events, training, new services, recruitment and resources.
