Third Sector (magazine)

British publication on management

Third Sector is a British publication that covers the management of the voluntary and not-for-profit sector. It is run by the Haymarket Group, currently publishing a bi-monthly magazine, alongside a website and also organising events.

History and profile

It launched in 2002, going head-to-head with another new title, Charity Week.[1]

The magazine was given a new look in 2009, following an exercise to take account of reader feedback.[2] In 2011, the magazine had a circulation of almost 11,500 per issue.[3] By 2014 the print circulation had dropped to just over 6,200 per issue.[4]

In 2015 the magazine launched an event called "Fundraising Week". The following year this was a three-day event held in London and incorporated an award ceremony.[5]

Third Sector Awards

Third Sector Awards is an annual awards scheme to recognize innovation and outstanding achievement in communications and marketing, fundraising, finance, management, governance and working with other sectors.[6] At first it was voted for by members;[7] As of 2015 there is a panel of judges[8] of submitted entries and it is managed by Haymarket Events and sponsored by Markel Corporation.[9] As of 2018 there is an Australian edition.[10] In 2020 the Third Sector Digital Awards were launched,[11] which included a nomination for Clap for Our Carers in the category of 'Best Online Awareness Campaign'.[12]
