Tamworth Borough Council Voluntary and Community Sector Commissioning Framework

In line with national best practice, Tamworth Borough Council has conducted an eighteen month review of our Commissioned services, processes and procedures for awarding grants to voluntary sector organisations.  This has been to inform an “intelligent commissioning” approach to funding the Voluntary and Community Sector in Tamworth which has been implemented in July 2010. The review involved the local Voluntary and Community Sector from the outset and ensured that new commissioning procedures are Compact compliant, clear and transparent.

This piece of work has been cited as best practice and we have joined up funding steams and priorities with health, housing and environment meaning a total of £683,838 has been commissioned out to the Voluntary and Community sector.
