Local Compacts
The Compact is the agreement between government and the voluntary and community sector to improve their relationship for mutual advantage and community gain.
99% of local areas in England are committed to better partnership working between local government, local public bodies and local voluntary and community organisations through Local Compacts. Local Compacts are living documents that inform the whole range of joint working at a local level, from police working with the community sector to tackle anti-social behaviour to social services improving their contracting with social care organisations.
