Not-for-Profit
Also occasionally known as the third sector – this industry is defined as a business whose goal is something other than making profit for its directors and shareholders. Charities cover a broad range of purposes including: environmental, religious, social care, animal welfare, education, leisure, the arts and many more.
There are over 160,000 registered charities in the UK, employing 800,000 workers, which equates to 2.7% of the UK workforce. Not-for-Profit businesses’ search for office space will differ from other industries as they can sometimes find free office space and are liable for business rates relief.
