Partnership Community Forum

The Partnership Community Forum (PCF) was established by The Learning Partnership in 2000 and has continued to grow and evolve over the last 10 years into what it is today – a countywide partnership forum which meets to exchange information, share good practice, discuss new activities around the learning agenda and to act as a sounding board on new developments in the learning arena.

The PCF has received ESF Technical Assistance Funding through the European Social Fund (ESF) Engage and Enable Project which has helped to support the delivery of our Forum Meetings, briefing events, 1:1 support for our partners and the production of our E-bulletin.    Latest PCF Bulletins are posted on our news page.

The forum has a membership of over 180 organisations predominantly, but not exclusively, from the voluntary and community sector. It enables 3^rd sector organisations to engage with both the mainstream providers and stakeholders to give them the opportunity to have a voice around the learning agenda.

Capacity Building events and workshops are identified through the PCF members and funding is sought to support the delivery of the learning which in turn enables voluntary and community sector organisations and groups to help sustain their growth and development.

As part of being a member of the PCF, you will the receive the PCF Bulletin and Grantfinder Updates which keeps you in touch with new developments around the learning agenda as well as events, workshops and training opportunities that may be available at that time.

You will receive notification when The Learning Partnership is looking to tender for new partnership bids and be invited to be part of those partnership lead initiatives if your organisation would like to be involved and has a track record of delivery.

If you are not already part of this forum and would like to be then please contact Vanda Bailey on 01234 851074 or send her an e-mail
