About Improving Support
Improving Support provides a website, magazine and e bulletin which bring together practical resources for all those providing support to third sector organisations.
Hosted by Capacitybuilders, this website provides a gateway to the widest range of tools and information, and will soon offer an easily accessible community for the exchange of resources, ideas and learning.
An Improving Support magazine and ebulletin also help support providers to stay informed and share learning on a range of issues relevant to their work.
Capacitybuilders is the government agency responsible for improving the advice and support available to frontline third sector organisations. Since 2006, it has invested some £100m in improving the support available to frontline third sector organisations. Capacitybuilders and its programmes are primarily funded by the Office of the Third Sector.
