Benefits for the NFP Sector
Enable your organisation to learn, connect and collaborate across sectors – by becoming a WIG member
As a charity or not-for-profit, you play a vital role in tackling the pressing issues we face as a society – but, in common with other organisations, you face complex day-to-day challenges which can be difficult to solve on your own.
Becoming a WIG member gives you a chance to collaborate on both kinds of challenges – alongside members from other sectors, across public, private and academic spheres. This helps you to demonstrate the innovative work you do, showcase your culture as a not-for-profit organisation, and to learn from the diverse experiences of others.
Benefits of joining WIG
Raise your organisation’s profile – showcasing the practical work you’re doing on the ground, and help to inform both the public and private sectors.
At the same time, drive efficiencies and improve decision-making by learning how things are done outside your sector.
Keep on top of the latest policy trends and hot topics – by attending briefings from senior leaders across the public and private sectors.
Build meaningful, long-lasting relationships with people in the public sector – including at the most senior level. The connections you make will help you understand how the civil service works.
Your contribution to discussions means you can support joined-up policy making – helping public bodies to understand the view from your sector at an early stage and throughout the policy making process.
WIG can support you to find high-calibre talent. We offer discounts on a range of services to help you do this – for example, by bringing in skills through secondments from the civil service, or recruiting Trustees.
By building links with the other sectors, you can contribute to a ‘whole systems’ approach to tackling the challenges we face as a society.
