Launching in March, the three-year programme will see 10 other third sector strategic partners working together and with the government to support health and social care organisations. Ensuring that those within the field are at the heart of informing and shaping future policy, this programme will also improve knowledge and skills in the sector.
Sally Whitaker, deputy chief executive of NCB, said: "As a membership and infrastructure support agency for the children and young people's sector, and with extensive experience of the health needs of children, we will work hard to increase stakeholder engagement in policy priorities, and strengthen capacity and partnership working within the third sector. These organisations have a wealth of knowledge and expertise within them and are a vital piece of the puzzle in ensuring the effective planning and delivery of health services.This new programme is exciting, and the partnership approach is to be admired and emulated."
