One East Midlands
One EM is the regional network for the voluntary and community sector (VCSE) in the East Midlands.
Its primary business is centred around ‘the alleviation of poverty’ and One EM aims to deliver a range of activities that focus on challenging and changing policies, practices and behaviours to ensure that the sector is engaged, enabled and active, and is not adversely disadvantaged. Within this, the One EM Board sees the organisation’s role as advocating for the voiceless, and working to influence those who are disadvantaged.
