Today we are proud to launch the South Lanarkshire Third Sector Manifesto ahead of the 2026 Scottish Parliament elections. This manifesto is shaped by the expertise and experience of South Lanarkshire’s third sector and aims to set out a path for the next Scottish Government to support our vital sector - on a local and national level. 

We are asking for a commitment to fair funding and prevention-focused services, the third sector to be recognised as an equal partner & recognition of how important local, place-based solutions are.
