Civil society minister Tracey Crouch has announced that a total of £1.2m will be made available by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) to create new, or strengthen existing, public service mutuals. It is anticipated the pot will help pay for legal, financial, marketing, human resources and business planning advice.
