The Voluntary and Community Sector Assembly Board is made up of representatives from the individual Forums of Interest. The Board meets approximately four times a year and aims to deliver an annual work programme. Meetings provide an opportunity to develop key strategies, share understanding and liaise with partners, such as public sector commissioners.
Board members also represent the Assembly on a range of other strategic and operational groups, including the Health and Well Being Board, Children’s Trust Area Forum and Scrutiny committees. More information is available on the Partnerships Page of this web site. For a full list email: VCSAssembly@shropshire.gov.uk
