Introducing the DeVA Quality Assurance Badge  

The Devon Connect team is happy to be introducing the new DeVA Quality Assurance badge for voluntary, community and social enterprise groups.  

The DeVA Quality Assurance badge will allow groups to be recognised for demonstrating good practice whilst working in Health and Wellbeing, no matter where in Devon they are based. Previously, this recognition was only available for groups based in Torbay and South Devon through the Quality Assurance Health and Wellbeing - Torbay & South Devon badge.  

Groups are able to apply for the DeVA Quality Assurance badge once they have received the DeVA Quality Assurance Mark. Groups that don’t currently have this mark but would like to receive it can find out more information about it by emailing their local DeVA partner.  

Groups based in Torbay and South Devon should continue to apply for Quality Assurance Health and Wellbeing - Torbay & South Devon badge instead of the DeVA Quality Assurance badge. Any group that is unsure of which badge to apply for can email DeVA for clarification.
