Commissioning for the Future of the Third Sector - Pendle
29 June 2010
The ACE Centre, Nelson, Lancashire
The economic downturn has put great pressure on charities, voluntary and community groups, social enterprises and not for profit organisations to become more efficient. Firstly, the Third Sector needs to get support to the people in need faster as the recession puts a huge burden on where it's needed. And secondly, Third Sector organisations themselves also face a squeeze on budgets and need to save money and improve efficiency. Does this sound like mission impossible? This unique and free conference will bring the policy and decision makers to work around:
- reduced costs
- improved efficiency and productivity
- increased information accessibility, collaboration and sharing
