Salford Third Sector Consortium
Categories of Work: Funding and grants
Who do you work with?: Voluntary and community groups
Organisation description: The Salford Third Sector Consortium (S3SC) was established because local organisations in the Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise Sector wanted to work together more effectively.
Salford Third Sector Consortium has been set up to:
•Apply for grants and bid for and secure contracts for delivering services, from the statutory sector, thus ensuring that small and/or specialist providers have an opportunity to bid as part of a Consortium for contracts, which they would either otherwise not be eligible for or seriously disadvantaged in tendering for
•Ensure diversity of the service offer, which utilises and builds on the skills, knowledge and expertise of the entire Sector
•Build on the capacity and track records of existing voluntary and community organisations, which are best placed to deliver a range of services at the point of need
•Help member organisations to develop their procedures and policies to improve sustainability

Other support description: As mentioned in the description above our main purpose is to enable the sector in Salford to apply for grants and bid for and secure contracts for delivering services, from the statutory sector that would not be able to access as a single organisation.
