What the petition asks
This petition calls on the Government to Include the Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise sector in any reform of the NHS, noting that these local and non-profit services do so much to cover gaps, bring innovation and support local people in their health and wellbeing.
The Voluntary, Community & Social Enterprise sector (VCSE) provide vital and essential health and wellbeing services in local communities.
For example in Sheffield, VCSE groups have banded together in an alliance (Synergy Sheffield) to collaborate in mental health services & work with Primary and Secondary care (plus Local Council.)
This work has proven to be:
a) Cost effective
b) Locally owned & delivered
c) Place service users at it's heart
d) Deliver results and high quality services.
