Small Charities Policy
Updates in the Small Charity Sector
At Small Charities Coalition one of our central aims is to:
Provide a forum for small charities to get their voices heard within the media, the government, regulators and those that can influence the issues that affect them.
We do this by:
Representing small charities with key decisions makers and influencers, for example, MPs, government departments, Charity Commission and working with organisations across the sector.
Contributing to research and policy that will enable a better understanding of small charities and the contribution they make to society.
Seeking the views of small charities about changes that will impact on them through surveys and polls – and feeding in issues raised from our helpline and other services.

Small Charities Coalition Research Report 2018
We recently surveyed our members about how valued they feel by government and what would make their situations better. The results showed that small charities feel unloved by both national and local government. Only 3% said they felt valued with over 50% feeling unvalued. Unfair commissioning and tender processes, lack of engagement and consultation and absence of sufficient funds are three of the main reasons. The full results and report are attached.
