Community networks and forums
You can make a difference!

The Network provides an opportunity for organisations from across the VCSE sector, to develop a united voice and ensure that important issues are brought to the attention of the appropriate bodies/organisations, and vice versa. Always acknowledging that a diversity of views may exist.
