Failing to fund #VCSE infrastructure is like leaving a restaurant without paying the bill - from #DirectoryForSocialChange (DSC)

Most funders understandably want their money to go to the frontline, but how much stronger would the sector be if we properly funded the infrastructure around it?

Phase 1 of the VONNE-led Assura project brought together insights from 45+ North East North Cumbria #VCSE organisations to create an Outcomes Translation Framework for #health commissioning

Proud of the work and my ability to communicate it to academics and #voluntarysector experts under pressure

It was especially exciting to see work connected to my own PhD on VCSE contributions to health research, explored through data, evaluation and sociology

The presentations, questions and conversations were thoughtful, creative and genuinely useful
