What is the VCSE Collaborative?
The VCSE sector is an important partner for statutory health and social care organisations and plays a key role in improving health and care outcomes for its communities, not only by delivering services but also by shaping their design and advocating for, representing and amplifying the voice of service users, patients and carers.
Integrated Care System
Humber and North Yorkshire Health and Care Partnership's Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise (VCSE) Collaborative. Is a collaboration between Health and VCSE organisations across the Integrated Health System - Humber & North Yorkshire Health and Care Partnerships and health to champion better heath and wellbeing
The VCSE Collaborative’s vision is to enable the potential and impact of the VCSE sector to be realised by being fully integrated into the planning, design and delivery of health and care across the Humber and North Yorkshire.
