Lord Nat Wei

Lord Nat Wei advises the Government on all aspects of taking forward the Big Society and driving implementation across government. Lord Nat Wei was appointed as the unpaid Government Adviser for Big Society at the launch of the Coalition Government policies on Big Society in May 2010.

At the event, the Prime Minister, David Cameron, announced that Nat Wei would also be appointed a life peer. He was introduced in the House of Lords on 3 June 2010 as Baron Wei of Shoreditch in the London Borough of Hackney. He sits as a Conservative peer.

He is based in the Office for Civil Society (OCS) in the Cabinet Office. He works closely with Francis Maude MP, Minister for the Cabinet Office and Paymaster General and Nick Hurd MP, Minister for Civil Society, in engaging with civil society organisations and developing government programmes to enable citizens to take greater control.

He is also working with organisations and citizens groups to help them understand the implications of the Big Society and how they can work with citizens to help support its development.
