Environment for a Thriving Third Sector

NI 7 arises from the government's recognition that a vibrant, diverse, and independent third sector is a vital component of a fair and enterprising society, which can help communities to be more cohesive and inclusive. We also help local statutory agencies to address a wide range of community concerns, including strengthening community cohesion, increasing environmental sustainability, tackling many of the causes and consequences of social and economic disadvantage. NI 7 is measured through the National Survey of Third Sector Organisations (NSTSO) see below the results of this survey for Wolverhampton.
