The Third Sector makes a direct impact on the growth of Scotland’s economy, the wellbeing of its citizens and the improvement of its public services.

The Third Sector – comprising community groups, voluntary organisations, charities, social enterprises, co-operatives and individual volunteers – has an important role in helping the Scottish Government achieve its purpose of creating a more successful country with opportunities for all to flourish, through achieving sustainable economic growth.

At a local level the relationship between local government and the third sector is extremely important given the role of the third sector in Community Planning Partnerships and developing Single Outcome Agreements

The Scottish Government is committed to the development of an enterprising third sector in Scotland. 

We are working to embed equalities issues in all we do across Government
