🌟 It's Small Charity Week! 🌟

This week, we're celebrating the incredible contribution that small charities make to communities across the UK. 💚

As a small charity ourselves, we're proud to support local people, community groups and volunteers to create stronger, more connected communities.

Small charities may be small in size, but their impact is huge. 🙌

Join us this week as we celebrate the people, partnerships and projects that make a difference every day.

📢 Did you miss it?

The State of the Sector 2026 survey is now open.

If you haven't completed it yet, we'd love to hear from you. The survey takes around 10 minutes and helps build a clearer picture of the strengths, challenges and opportunities facing Wiltshire's VCSE sector.

Every response strengthens the evidence we use to advocate for the sector.

Thank you to everyone who has completed it so far!

📢 Have your say in the State of the Sector 2026 survey!

We've made it easier than ever to take part - just 10 minutes to help tell the story of Wiltshire's voluntary and community sector.

Your response helps us understand what's working, what's challenging, and what support organisations need. Last year's results helped influence local partnerships, create new fundraising opportunities, and raise awareness of the pressures facing charities and community groups.

Every response counts. Whether you're a small volunteer-led group or a larger organisation, your experience matters.

Together, we can build a stronger voice for our sector.

Thank you for everything you do for our communities. 💙
