Background
We believe the voluntary sector has been propping up the state. Whether it is food banks, lunch clubs, sports facilities, community spaces or other things, the UK should be proud of its voluntary sector and the role it plays in flourishing society.
However, the sources of underpinning funding for these activities are diminishing. This might be because economic circumstances have devalued grant making trusts, or government funding cuts.
We want this risk to be noticed and accounted for transparently.
