Collaborative working may take many forms, including mutual support of campaigns and events, jointly bidding for contracts or sharing of back office functions. There is also increasing interest in mergers, which may be appropriate where organisations are sufficiently compatible in their aims and ethos.
Although much of the literature focuses on collaborations between voluntary and community organisations, they may also be developed with public or private sector organisations.

Partnership working in the voluntary and community sector has become commonplace. However, the experience of working in partnership can be very varied. While some partnerships grow and flourish and make huge impacts, others can struggle to find any sense of momentum.
This workshop will offer practical tools and techniques that can easily be applied to partnership working settings. If applied, they offer the opportunity to help create very successful partnerships.
