Main Voluntary Organisations Forum (VOF)
Aims and Objectives
The Main VOF aims to bring voluntary and community groups in Kensington and Chelsea together to work on issues that are of mutual interest. Its objectives are:
- to share information on local and national developments of interest to voluntary and community groups, including new funding opportunities;
- to elect people to represent the voluntary sector in discussions with the Borough Council and other statutory agencies and to partnership boards;
- to establish sub-groups, sub-committees and forums for organisations working with specific client groups and on particular issues;
- to act as the community network for Kensington & Chelsea in relation to the Kensington & Chelsea Partnership, the Community Strategy and the Neighbourhood Renewal Strategy.
