We collaborate with a wide range of organisations to give our community the best opportunities and solutions. 

Partnerships are crucial to the work that we do and that of the voluntary sector. We see all collaborative working as invaluable opportunities to share information, bring people together, address gaps in service provision and trial new initiatives. 

Partnerships we Chair: 

• Equity and Advice Network – Working in collaboration with Citizen’s Advice, this partnership brings together statutory and VCSE organisations to share information and insights, and develop best practice across issues of equity, diversity, inclusion, and access to service.
• Antipoverty Partnership – Statutory and VCSE organisations working together, responding to the impact of poverty in our community. Currently, key areas of focus are: The Impact of Covid-19, Financial Insecurity, Food Poverty, and Digital Exclusion.
• Dementia Action Group – Providing a collaborative environment for cross-sector action, supporting people with dementia and their carers, whilst championing organisations and groups working in this field.
• Sustainability Partnership – Addressing long-term challenges and opportunities for action, enabling a sustainable future for communities. Current areas of focus include: Community Action on Climate Change, Green Spaces, & Biodiversity, Circular Towns Initiative, and Our Zero Selby.
• York and Selby District Police Independent Advisory Group – IAGs are made up of independent community members from diverse backgrounds, that best represent North Yorkshire’s communities. The IAG is a critical friend to North Yorkshire Police, consulting on policing areas around issues linked to diversity.
