NICVA is encouraging voluntary and community organisations in Northern Ireland to
send them details about their work for the ‘Census Day’ on 10 September.
NICVA has
been asked by the Voluntary and Community Unit (VCU) in the Department for Social
Development to develop a database of core information about voluntary and community
organisations in Northern Ireland.

The information collected through the Census will be used to inform the proposed
Task Force on Resourcing the Voluntary and Community Sector. It will also be used
to assist in future government grant-making: participating organisations will receive
a Unique Reference Number (URN) which will be at some point need to be quoted on
any application for government funding.

Census forms should be completed and returned by 30 September 2002.
