Consultation on a new fund to support the sustainability of VCSE Organisations

The Cabinet Office are seeking views on a new £40 million fund to help voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations secure their futures.

The fund will provide medium-sized organisations with the support they need to plan for the long term and begin to move to sustainable business models. The fund will be open to applications in 2015 and will look particularly at supporting organisations working with the most vulnerable and disadvantaged members of society.

The Cabinet Office aim to work openly on developing the fund and want people and organisations to give their views to help design and implement it, and are interested in hearing from:
• front-line VCSE organisations
• VCSE sector membership and infrastructure organisations
• funders and providers of business-development support to the sector
• anyone with relevant experience or knowledge
