CBC-0589-T-LS Community and Voluntary Sector Infrastructure Support - AWARD

Descriptions

A key outcome in the council’s emerging Five Year Plan is for our towns and villages to be sustainable and resilient places, where: • people are supported to help themselves and others; •people of all ages will be encouraged to volunteer; and •residents, community organisations and town and parish councils will have opportunities to do more in and for their communities. A strategy for building resilient and self sustaining communities is in development to ensure a whole council approach aimed at maximising the contribution of all service areas and steering their impact to ensure community resilience and greater social capital. We wish to extend that approach to include voluntary and community sector infrastructure organisations to work with us to build strong and resilient communities.
