Workshop: Help shape an agreement to enable effective working between the public and VCFSE sectors in Greater Manchester
As part of our open consultation on a new Greater Manchester voluntary, community, faith and social enterprise (VCFSE) Accord agreement, due to start 1st April 2026, we are hosting two workshops to provide an opportunity for stakeholders such as the VCFSE and public sectors in Greater Manchester to have their say.
The current GM VCFSE Accord was signed in 2021 for a five-year period. It is a formal agreement between the GM VCFSE Sector represented by the GM VCFSE Leadership Group, GMCA and TfGM, and NHS GM, based in a relationship of mutual trust and sharing responsibility. Its purpose is to further develop how we work together to improve outcomes for Greater Manchester’s communities and citizens. The Accord is jointly owned by the 3 partners and the 10 local authorities across Greater Manchester.
This in-person workshop is an opportunity to help shape the refreshed agreement, including its underlying values and principles, priorities for change, how it could be implemented, and what work could be delivered at a Greater Manchester-level to support its aims.
We hope you can join us!
Lunch will be provided between 12pm and 12:30pm.
