| 8 | Sarjoh Aziz Kamara | NVSC is a vital organisation in Newham. It has over the years supported a lot of Voluntary Community and faith Sector organistaions in Newham. Stifling the running of NVSC will affect the entire Voluntary sector in Newham. Dont do it!!! Give them funding to continue its good works to disadvantaged community groups. |

| 13 | Ruth Musgrave | NVSC is vitally needed in Newham |
| 14 | Elahe Panahi | The loss of NVSC will be felt most by many people /groups located in isolated and extremely deproved areas such as Northwoolwich and Silvertown. Over the last seven years we have benefited from wide range of support we received from NVSC which kept us involved and engaged with borough wide issues. we strongly value their expertise, skills and committments and wish to see them continue with their valuable support to the Voluntry, Community and Faith sectors. |
| 15 | Abdi Bille | Closing down NVSC is a sheer ignorance of what voluntary organisation does for its community. NVSC was extreemly helpful to young organisations who work at a grass root level. We have alreardy missed its support ,and this lack of support to NVSC and even threatening to close will open a dark chapter of the history of Voluntary organisation Please stop this idea and think before you shoot the gfun.
Thank you for not closing NVCS |

| 17 | Lorraine Cavanagh | The Government has now realised how important the Third Sector is in delivery services to local people.
And now the Local Authority want to take away the bridge that connects us all. |
| 18 | Matthew Porter | While not agreeing with the tone of the statement, I do agree with the content. It would be a real waste of resources to close down NVSC and then to re-open another oragnisation to deliver CVS into Newham.
There should be no 'divine right' and perhaps NVSC are subject to the grants to commissioning process? Many other Third Sector orgs are waiting on funding news from LBN for April. |

| 20 | Buganda Centre (E) UK | We totally support this petition as any move towards withdrawing of funds will have seriuos impact on our voluntary Sector work, which is badly needed by the communities we support in Newham. |

| 29 | Tee Fabikun | NVSC has been supporting us all in Newham and it will be a big shame if it can no longer allow her to give the much needed service and support it has been giving. |
| 30 | JOHN PAUL MAJEPA LIKULE | Dear Sir / Madam
We want just to protest by this email the rumours on the closing down the NVSC by the end of March 2008. Because , NVSC is still now the only one biggest umbrella organisation the LB Newham. and most of the small and large charities are building and received an effective support from this strong organisation.
Now, we are surprised by your negative proposal to
close down the ledear of the not-for-profit organisation the LB Newham wide. In other words, Gamaliel Press Group Ltd reject this assumption wholeheartedly.
At finally, we hope that you must review your bad decision in the future
On behalf of the Directors of Gamaliel Press Group

| 31 | Alan Partridge | NVSC is important to us and to hundreds of small community organisations as a source of information and a means of debating with and influencing statutory policy decisions. They provide a great service within their resource constraints. |

| 33 | Valerie Forde | I would like the council to fund NVSC, this organisation keeps groups informed of events and issues and this is vital for the third sector. It is also important that the council does not spend money building a new bridge when there is already one that is well constructed, namely NVSC. Getting rid of NVSC is not added value. No query is too small for NVSC and all queries are important, that is one of their special qualities. NVSC is a well aware of the needs of the third sector, the individual groups in Newham and is value for money. Their continuity is essential. |

| 36 | Abdi Hassan | We support that NVSC will continue to exist and provide support to local groups. |
| 37 | KE Foundation LTD | give us our independent voices. do not cut it off. Thank you |
| 38 | Anonymous | Very bad decision.this is not unusual. both Local gov and Central Gov are very good at wasting money |

| 40 | Rev Ian Parker | Since I arrived in Newham in 2005, NVSC has been invaluable in helping me understand what is going on and making contact with others who share my interests in community development. |

| 42 | keith fernett | This is another piece of adhocery, we need long term consistent , sustainable funding and representation. We used to have Community Forums and they were replaced, what next? |
| 43 | Paul Regan | I am extremely concerned that Newham Council could be contemplating withdrawing finance from NVSC. |
| 44 | Jan Atkins | |
| 45 | jane ishmael | |
| 46 | Mike Roberts | I think the decision as to who should represent the voluntary/third sector should be taken by that sector. Clearly, the Council, as one of the funders, has a right to a view as to how it wants that to work. But , not in my view to dictate who the organisation should be nor what they should do and say. That would undermine the independence and credibility of our sector |
| 47 | Anonymous | Not fair to NVSC |
| 48 | Anonymous | I am in full support of the vital work that NVSC carries out. Why curtail the good work that is being done???? Newham Council.....give them the funding they need!! |
