Thursday, December 17th, 2009 | Posted in : |

As you may be aware, at the request of the Prime Minister, Rt Hon Anne McGuire MP currently holds the role of Cabinet Office Advisor on Third Sector Innovation. In this capacity, she is considering the role of the third sector in the design and delivery of more personalised services in education and learning.

In consultation with key representatives from the third sector and stakeholders across Government, the Minister for the Third Sector, Angela Smith, and Anne McGuire have identified three priority areas to be explored through this project. These priorities are:

How can the third sector …

· … offer greater choice and influence to children and young people through greater participaton?

· … be supported work together, tailoring services around the needs of individual children and young people?

· … scale up and mainstream innovative personal services?

They have now published a call for evidence on these questions. Detailed information on this can be found on the Office of the Third Sector website (http://www.cabinetoffice.gov.uk/third_sector/innovation/innovation_advisor.aspx)

The deadline for submission of this information is Friday 22 January 2010. Please encourage your partners, members and service users to also contribute.
