Building communitiesGenerous local giving %u2013 from individuals, families, businesses and charitable trusts %u2013 enables us to support grassroots organisations, which is the core of the work we do. Our 2030 strategy asks how can we use our knowledge and resources to further extend and expand the support we offer.%u00a0%u00a0Local voluntary organisations deliver the solutions that communities rely on. They are led by local people with real life experience and deep understanding of community needs.They want us to use our influence and independence to deliver this new strategy. Looking to 2030, we will inspire new giving, expand our grantmaking, and become an even greater advocate, encouraging more collaboration, partnership, recognition and resources for the voluntary sector in Essex.We know we can do this, together. We will be a bold, trusted partner and strong voice for the sector, helping to build local communities where people feel safe, valued, included and involved.
