Argyll and Bute Third Sector Interface (ABTSI) exists to support, represent and strengthen the third sector across Argyll and Bute. We work with charities, voluntary organisations, social enterprises, community groups and volunteers to help them deliver services that improve wellbeing, reduce inequality and build resilient communities. We do this by providing practical support and advice on governance, funding, volunteering, employability and organisational development, and by acting as a key link between the third sector and statutory partners. ABTSI also leads and administers funding programmes on behalf of the Scottish Government and other partners, distributing grants that support mental health, wellbeing, climate action and community development across the region.

Beneficiaries: 'No specific group, or for the benefit of the community'

Objectives: The company's objects are: (a) To advance citizenship and community development by assisting voluntary, charitable, social enterprise and community organisations (collectively referred to as the Third Sector) and volunteers to thrive and develop. This will include working with public sector agencies and operating appropriate projects to deliver services in the local authority area to assist people and communities who are in need to improve the physical, cultural, social and economic infrastructure. (b) To advance health and social care, and relieve poverty by supporting third and public sector organisations and volunteers to deliver high quality services and activities to vulnerable groups. (c) To advance education through the provision of appropriate training to Third Sector organisations, volunteer involving organisations, public sector bodies, volunteers, potential volunteers and local citizens. (d) To advance equality and diversity through the provision of appropriate training and assistance to individuals, third sector organisations and public sector bodies.
