Infrastructure Development

Voluntary Sector Infrastructure is the support that helps frontline voluntary organisations delivering services to do their best for the individual people and communities they serve. Organisations of all sizes need assistance to deal with new legislation, responding to government policy and changes in funding programmes.

Infrastructure organisations provide support to voluntary and community sector organisations at regional, sub-regional and local levels.

As the generic regional infrastructure organisation for the Voluntary and Community sector the Yorkshire & the Humber Forum plays a key role in co-ordinating infrastructure in the region by linking together infrastructure organisations, advocating for the sector and liaising with funding providers over developing funding strategies and programmes.
