We have 30 plus years’ experience of delivering community projects and supporting the third sector in Hull, and we now extend this benefit across the Yorkshire and Humber region.
Our aims are to promote the valuable work of the third sector and the importance of volunteering, and to support the sector to grow and achieve its voice and influence on local matters.
We also work with a range of funders and public bodies in the delivery of services to the community, and we support local groups and organisations to develop projects to meet local needs.
