It is really becoming apparent that opportunities are being missed by local authorities and third sector organisations to coordinate more and make best use of ever scarce public funds, [Lottery] grants and other funding sources.
In so many cases each does not seem to know what is going on in terms of wider funding, inputs, outcomes and wider impacts. Protectionism may be an issue of course. What ever the reasons, the nettle, or golden thread needs to be grasped quickly, if we are to protect the future and sustainability of key third sector organisations, and the essential role they play in supporting vulnerable service users.
Please feel free to get in touch for further details and discussion.
Kindest regards
