A VCS Task Group is leading the partnership work taking place between Shropshire Council and the VCS Assembly.  The group comprises Shropshire Council's Cheif Executive, Senior Managers from Shropshire Council, Elected Members, the VCS Chair and Shadow Chair and VCS Assembly Board members working as sector representatives.  The VCS Task Group's role was set out at the first meeting of the group:

"Defining the council's role in co-ordinating the formultation and implementation of an over-arching support framework and plan of action to ensure that Shropshire has a thriving third sector, best able to respond to future needs, demands and funding environment.

Reporting to the VCS Task Group are three sub groups.  Each group is led by a Senior Manager at Shropshire Council and includes Council Officers, Elected Members and VCS Assembly representatives. 

The three sub groups are:

Commissioning
Performance
Community Right to Buy and Community Right to Challenge

Information on each group is included on web pages that may be accessed using the menu bar to the left of this text.
