What is the Compact?
The national Compact, published 1998, is a written understanding between the Government and the Voluntary and Community Sector which sets out a number of commitments about how the two sectors work together. The East Sussex Compact was launched in October 2003 and revised July 2005. It aims to:
- agree principles and provide an effective framework for partnership working
- improve working relationships in order to provide more effective and co-ordinated services to local communities
- improve consultation, communication, partnership working, trust and respect
- help partner agencies to meet common strategic aims.
