This E3M webinar is aimed at commissioners from local public authorities, as well as leaders of social enterprises and other public benefit organisations, who want to explore new and more impactful ways of organising public services.

With case studies from Plymouth and Croydon, the event will explore how local public authorities can work in partnership with social enterprises and the broader social economy, to improve and develop local services through a relational approach to commissioning services. Through practical examples it will look at the benefits and some of the challenges involved in working this way.

It will also examine how the commissioning, procurement and contracting processes can be improved to enhance partnership working.
