W3RT has worked for 50 years, which we will celebrate in May 2024, to ensure that our community benefits from voluntary groups that are welcoming, effective, accountable and sustainable, and to ensure that people can contribute to the design and delivery of the services on which they rely. Our vision is of a thriving community in which people are prosperous, informed, connected and take responsibility for the wellbeing of themselves and others. W3RT lead the CVS service supporting charities with fundraising, governance and providing support, advice, partnership opportunities and guidance to ensure their ongoing success. With support from key partners and donors, we have raised and distributed nearly £1m to local charities and have supported our member organisations to raise more than £1m.
