Communities and Business Working Together

Tuesday, March 6th, 2012

Welcome to our guide on how communities and business can work together and mutually benefit from a partnership with one another. The aims of the guide are to:

• Encourage community and voluntary groups to interpret their needs in terms of business skills, manpower and volunteering time rather than cash
• Understand the business case for involvement
• Provide a 7 step framework on how to develop a successful partnership with business
• Highlight case studies showing community partnerships in action and the mutual benefits achieved
