The values and value of the voluntary sector to health and social care in Wales.

Richard Newton Consulting are partnering with WCVA and Bevan Commission on a paper to be published in Spring 2023 which explores the values and value of the voluntary sector to health and social care in Wales.

This is an important project, and part of a wider multi-year piece of work, which seeks to effectively mobilise relationships, volunteering and support across the health and care system to address priority challenges and maximise the contribution of third sector organisations and volunteers towards health and care outcomes.

Given the pressures on the health and social care sector this is a priority project for WCVA, supported by Welsh Government as part of the Third Sector Infrastructure for Health and Social Care project.

The final paper will make recommendations in respect of the voluntary sector’s role in health and social care in Wales, its’ USP in this area and the actions that can be made to maximise its potential.

It is important that as many organisations including voluntary sector delivery organisations, infrastructure and membership organisations, and public sector providers have their voice and experience heard to inform this piece of work.

As such we’d like to invite you to this 90-minute focus group, held digitally.

You are welcome to bring a service user and / or volunteer who has experience of health or social care delivered by the voluntary sector with you. Please register each attendee separately.

If you are unable to attend any of these days, or would like a one-to-one discussion with the project team please contact iwan@richard-newton.co.uk
