GMCVO works to drive economic and social inclusion in Greater Manchester through effective collaborations and supporting other organisations to achieve their goals. We support better decision making by increasing the accessibility and diversity of learning and insight.
We invest in social businesses and trading charities in Greater Manchester and work to develop an ecosystem of support for social enterprise.
We support policy makers to understand the potential of local community organisations to support the growth of sustainable local economies and the challenges they face. We also provide practical assistance to commissioners and funders to understand how they can create the conditions for local economic growth.
We support a range of organisations focused on reducing inequalities to influence policy and progress their own sustainable economic development.
