Public Sector

Partnerships for long term change

The Public Sector has always had a love-hate relationship with the community and voluntary sector. Various governments and public bodies have sought to foster engagement on their terms, to meet ideals and aspirations that allow them to meet their objectives. There has been a lot of talk about ‘partnership’ working, but very often those partnerships are based around short term funding, rather than long term change.

Our intention

It is our intention to better equip those who work in the public sector with the information and skills to better understand the community and voluntary sector and create sustainable opportunities for the future.

Our offer to the public sector:

Themed, topical meetings
A quarterly newsletter for public sector partners
A matching service for connection (beyond the usual suspects) with organisations
Training and advice on the structure, formation and running of community and voluntary organisations
