This paper illustrates that the conceptions of wellbeing and
personal development may provide a new and significant
way of characterising the value of third sector activities.
Third sector leaders from diverse backgrounds, running very different organisations, share a common belief that the deeper wellbeing of service users, staff and volunteers is a key objective of their work.
They argue that a philosophy of personal development underlies and defines their activity, distinguishing it from services that tend to view service users as merely the objects of defined outputs.
This paper illustrates that the conceptions of wellbeing and personal development may provide a new and significant way of characterising the value of third sector activities.
