Voluntary groups lend a hand to government to improve health and wellbeing

The 21 voluntary sector organisations that will be part of the new Health and Care Voluntary Sector Strategic Partner Programme for 2013/14, were announced today at the Department of Health.

The Voluntary Sector Strategic Partner Programme has been running for four years and brings together a range of voluntary sector organisations to use their expertise to inform and shape national policy.

The programme provides a way for policy makers to reach hundreds of thousands of voluntary and community sector organisations through the extensive depth and reach of the partners’ networks. This helps to ensure that the voice of small voluntary and community sector organisations are in direct contact with national bodies at the heart of decision making.
