Outcomes – what we want delivered through our VSI services
The overall aim of the service is to support our shared vision for the VCSE which is for a flourishing, sustainable local VCSE sector in Calderdale that enables people to live a larger life by:
• Making a real difference to quality of life for Calderdale residents and communities.
• Attracting and developing people of all ages and abilities in paid and unpaid roles.
• Working alongside those in public and private sector organisations as respected equals.
Delivering the VCSE Strategy - Working alongside partners in the Council and the ICB, the VSI providers will play a key role in ensuring delivery of the three key priorities set out in the strategy which are to:
• Release the capacity of the VCSE sector by identifying activities or processes that can be stopped, streamlined or improved.
• Increase accountability and transparency between all partners by being open about decision-making, use of resources, priorities and what works.
• Nurture and protect VCSE people, organisations, and partnerships to ensure a strong VCSE and partnerships for future generations.
