Contract arrangements for Voluntary Sector Infrastructure (VCSI) SSC10 18/19

As part of the County Council’s commitment to building stronger and more resilient communities it recognises the vital role played by the voluntary and community sector in developing a healthy and dynamic civic society across West Sussex.

 

To evidence this commitment a set of clear Partnership Principles to reset the relationship between the Authority and the voluntary and community sector (VCS) were agreed in 2018.

 

To sustain and strengthen the role played by the VCS within the many communities of West Sussex the County Council has worked with the providers of local voluntary and community sector infrastructure services, the District and Borough councils and representatives from Health to develop a fit for purpose model to ensure adequate support and advice is available to support and enable the continued growth of dynamic and effective voluntary organisations across the county.
