Why the BME VCS?

BME voluntary and community organisations (VCOs) are a crucial part of civil society.  By supporting the BME VCS we aim to improve the life outcomes for BME and other disadvantaged communities. 

In the current climate, V4CE are focused on three key policy areas:

• Equality, specifically race equality 
• Public spending cuts
• The Big society
