NCVO have published a Voluntary Sector Manifesto to help charities have a bigger impact in the UK. It outlines the vital importance of charities in areas such as equality, economy, climate, communities, and more.
The sector is strong in many ways, it:
- helps solve challenges with integrity, drive and dedication
- has far-reaching knowledge about the people and causes they support
- works innovatively and responsibly for people instead of profit
- builds trust with those who are often not heard
- mobilises, develops and empowers volunteers.
This manifesto was shaped by 17,000+ members, presenting a clear vision for the future ahead of the general election and beyond. If you’re looking to engage political parties during this period, here’s something to help.
