Lincolnshire Community and Voluntary Service
People’s Partnership Update
What was the idea behind the People’s Partnership....
To set up Community Engagement for a long term
meaningful relationship between the people of Lincolnshire and Lincolnshire County Council.
www.lincolnshirecvs.org.uk
So the purpose of the People's Partnership is...
to find ways to further strengthen representation and influence commissioning plans, strengthening networking and improve information exchange.
www.lincolnshirecvs.org.uk
How will the People's Partnership work?
By providing the forum for communities of interest, Strands, and the commissioners to get together.
Funding is available for a Strand Lead to develop each Strand in a manner that suits that Strand’s community, at a strategic and local level.www.lincolnshirecvs.org.uk

Proposed Activity Plans......
Each Strand Lead was invited to put together a plan of how their Strand could be developed to support the work of the People’s Partnership – including requests for support and funds
www.lincolnshirecvs.org.uk
Differing needs of each Strand......Support requested ranged from £0 - £11K
-some already receive funding from LCC
-Strand Leads range from big national organisations already involved in activity across the county to small groups run completely by volunteers

Learning points – LCC recognises the People’s Partnership were engaged too late to have a real influence
Positives• 2 week delay• easy read documents• some improvements in the readability of the documents (3D graphs taken out)
www.lincolnshirecvs.org.uk
Going forwards.....
Meeting with officers from Adult Social Care and they were all very positive about the opportunity for ‘on-going engagement’, rather than just consultation.
www.lincolnshirecvs.org.uk
How can YOU help.....
Rather than promoting the People’s Partnership, to groups or individuals, we are promoting involvement with each Strand Lead.
It is the Strand Lead organisation that has the trusted name in the community.
