The Code is a set of principles that, when applied well, ensure good practice in funding voluntary organisations.
The document is for use by Welsh Government grant managers in support of the development and delivery of voluntary sector funding, and for the voluntary sector to understand how they can expect to be funded.
The Code applies to Welsh Government funding, and Welsh Government funding delivered by other public sector organisations, such as local authorities and health boards.
