We give voluntary and community organisations the support and platform they need to make a difference to local lives and issues.
We connect hundreds of local community groups and voluntary organisations to each other for mutual support.
We help people who want to volunteer their time to find local opportunities that make the most of their abilities and ambitions.
We connect local businesses and the public sector with voluntary and community organisations so everyone can benefit.
The support and networks we create between organisations and people help to build stronger and fairer local areas for everyone.
The Voluntary Sector in numbers
Each year the Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise sector contributes millions of pounds to the local economy.
