The Third Sector Assembly (3SA) is a membership of local third sector organisations and supports the creation of local networks and partnership working. It is brought together by Voluntary and Community Action Wirral (VCAW) to improve communication across the sector, to grow its ability to influence and to strengthen relationships with the public sector to improve outcomes for local people.

The 3SA was formerly known as the Wirral Voluntary and Community Sector Network.

• Informed - those groups who would like regular information around their chosen areas   
• Active - those groups that want regular information and would like the opportunity to attend meetings and act as a conduit for the sector also known as a delegate

• Health and Wellbeing

• Housing
• Economic Development, Learning and Skills
• Environment and Liveability
