Strategic Work

We work with colleagues from Sedgemoor District and Somerset County Councils, the Police, housing associations and a range of voluntary/community groups. The Space delivers contracts for the Integrated Commissioning Board who provide opportunities for us to play a role in helping to make local voices heard.

We invest our time and commitment where they are the most effective. For example: Somerset Youth Partnership a forum that brings together all those that provide youth services in the County.

The Space also engages with various networks and meetings the Somerset Clinical Commissioning Group organises including the Mental Health Collaborative Group bringing all social, health care and voluntary sector colleagues together. This provides an opportunity to influence as well as share and obtain information on activities/services and access to key individuals.

The Space enjoys excellent relationships with other providers. Regular meetings are held with key organisations that help enhance our services/activities. Our contacts with 80+ organisations enable us to reach a wider audience, have mutual signposting arrangements benefitting all our beneficiaries.
