As part of the work Cornwall VSF is undertaking to strengthen the VCSE sector locally, we are setting up Thematic Alliances, in which voluntary sector organisations working in the same ‘business system’ can meet, to discuss the issues they have in common, and build partnerships. The Members of of the Strategic Alliance (VERA) are each in the process of setting up their own Thematic Alliances, with several already operational.
The current list of operating Thematic Alliances is here, together with the contact details of their chairs.
