Howard Lake | 16 June 2002 | News
OurPartnership.org.uk project launches today at the National Council for Voluntary Organisations (NCVO).
£350,000 allocated in the fourth round of the Government’s Invest to Save Budget is to be used to develop Web-based services to support and develop partnership working between the voluntary and public sectors.
The project will support the emergence of an identifiable cross sector partnership community, committed to sharing knowledge and exchanging information. The Web site at OurPartnership.org.uk is aimed at people working in government, or in the community and social enterprise sector.
