This paper, rooted in Scottish practitioner experiences from within a major UK voluntary organisation, explores organisational culture within faith-based UK voluntary organisations recognising voluntary sector-specific distinctiveness in the light of academic and practitioner research published to date (Hay, Beattie, Livingstone and Munro, 2001; Hussey and Perrin, 2003). Based on preliminary findings of a doctoral study, a number of key themes and conceptual issues are explored with a view to identifying and examining the key characteristics of organisational culture within voluntary organisations and to develop a framework of ?good? practice.
