Third Sector Trends in North West England 2025

This study of voluntary and community organisations, social enterprises, cooperatives, societies and amateur sport clubs (sometimes called the 'third sector'. 'voluntary sector, or 'civil society sector') started in 2010 and it takes place every three years. 


We've been building a picture of how organisations and groups work, what they achieve and how they feel about their future. This helps policy makers, funding bodies and CVSs to make good decisions on how to support the voluntary sector.


Whether your organisation is large or small, thriving, struggling or just going along as normal - we need to hear from you. It's interesting and only takes 15 to 20 minutes to complete.
