Support and Collaboration Initiatives in Haringey Council's Voluntary & Community Sector

Poppy Thomas, the Voluntary & Community Sector Coordinator at Haringey Council, leads efforts to strengthen partnerships, secure external funding, and provide support for organizations in the Voluntary and Community Sector. The council works closely with the VCS to commission services, bring in resources, and offer guidance. Collaborative projects like the Voluntary & Community Sector Support Team and NavNet aim to enhance support for the local community, promote practitioner wellbeing, and drive cultural change. Patient Participation Groups further connect practices with the VCS to improve health awareness and education.
