The general definition of a charity is an organisation that is independent of both government and business, provides assistance for a wider public benefit and is non-profit making. There are voluntary organisations dealing with every imaginable section of society.
The voluntary sector is also commonly referred to as the not-for-profit sector. Internationally voluntary sector organisations may be known as non-governmental organisations (NGOs). About 15-20% of positions in the UK's estimated 180,000 registered salaries are paid, with the remainder being voluntary positions. Click here for more about charity and voluntary jobs.
