Consultation process
Consultation has been carried out with key stakeholders including voluntary and community sector organisations in order to better understand how the Council can develop a more strategic relationship with the VCS to help deliver Community Plan priorities. Workshops were hosted with the VCS, elected Members and Council officers who engage with the sector.
Discussions also took place with the Tower Hamlets Council for Voluntary Service (THCVS) and Third Sector Advisory Board (TSAB). An online survey was also conducted to allow organisations who could not attend the VCS workshop and the wider borough, including residents to contribute their thoughts and ideas and help shape the revised strategy.
