Cardiff Third Sector Council (C3SC) have commissioned Richard Newton Consulting to support the development of a Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise (VCSE) Strategy which is to be co-produced with involvement from the breadth of the sector operating in Cardiff. The Strategy is intended to strengthen the role of the VCSE sector in the provision of solutions to the City’s challenges and support future discussions about how and why the public sector should work with and invest in the sector.
We want the strategy to be owned by Cardiff’s voluntary sector, and ensure that all voluntary sector organisations (including unregistered groups, social enterprises, CIOs, CICs, charities and other relevant groups) have full opportunity to participate.

While volunteers may work for free this doesn’t mean their time doesn’t have a value. In return for your time we’d like to offer participants in our focus groups the opportunity to come along to a free fundraising workshop/Q&A with our team of expert fundraisers to help support your organisation in reaching its goals. The workshop will be held via Zoom. We’ll give you details of the workshop at the focus group.
