Berkshire West Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) plans to develop a Strategy for the Voluntary and Community Sector (VCS) across Reading, West Berkshire and Wokingham. The strategy will be co-produced with the voluntary and community sector, and, at this stage will cover relationships with BWCCG only.

Reading Voluntary Action is hosting a Listening Event on Wednesday 20th June to discuss what needs to be included in the strategy to achieve effective partnership between the sector and BWCCG. The Listening Event will be from 10:00 am to 12:30pm followed by a light buffet lunch. The event will be at Shehnai in London Street Reading.

Sarah Garner, the interim Director of Commissioning for the Berkshire West CCG will introduce the Listening Event

The event is aimed at voluntary and community organisations and places are limited. In order to have a good representation from across the sector in Reading we will initially restrict bookings to two per organisation
