Collaborate on GM level projects
10GM leads the work on the locality ecosystem and infrastructure within the Accord. The aim of this work is to develop the Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise sector (VCSE) ecosystem by growing VCSE infrastructure capacity and ‘scaffolding’ for the involvement of communities of identity, experience and place in each of the ten districts of Greater Manchester by developing communications and collaboration between Local Infrastructure Organisations and system stakeholders at Greater Manchester-level.
Our priorities for 2023-2026 are to work together with Greater Manchester's Local VCSE Infrastructure Organisations (LIOs) to address common issues faced by VCSE organisations across Greater Manchester (GM). We'll connect both locality and GM insight at a strategic level, to influence Greater Manchester and local plans and activity.
To achieve this, 10GM provides project support to collaborative GM projects such as the community-led initiatives for Violence Reduction and the UK Shared Prosperity Fund; and supports LIOs to connect with other Greater Manchester Networks, such as the GM Equality Alliance.
We will continue to facilitate monthly meetings of the Greater Manchester Local VCSE Infrastructure Organisations to:
Collaborate on GM level projects
Share information across GM VCSE local infrastructure providers
Generate insight to influence Greater Manchester strategy and plans
Generate shared funding bids to secure additional resources for VCSE local infrastructure
Provide peer support and swap, shop and share good practice
Work on VCSE infrastructure development, which is closely aligned with the GM Infrastructure Development Programme.
Developing workstreams from the GM Integrated Care Partnership, such as the People & Communities Engagement Framework and the Children’s Healthy Weight Consultation.
How we can re-shape existing Local Infrastructure Organisation collaboration/meeting spaces to better manage LIO shared business.
How we can develop a collaborative approach between LIOs and The Greater Manchester Combined Authority to address the cost of living crisis and how we can highlight the VCSE sector's role to senior GM leaders and commissioners.
Partner updates, such as the Alternative Provider Collaborative and the Violence Reduction Unit.
The future of funding for VCSE Hospital Discharge Schemes.
Feedback on the Education, Skills & Work community grants programme and related initiatives.
Exploring future opportunities for the Community-Led Approach to violence reduction.
