## Description

Infrastructure support is the term used to describe the services frontline voluntary and community organisations used to develop as organisations, represent their views and enable them to carry out their activities more effectively\. This includes providing a voice for the voluntary and community sector \(VCS\), facilitating partnerships and raising the profile of the sector with key stakeholders\.
