Emil, Matthew and Benita joined Northfield Community Partnership in Sheffield
City Hall recently and we are delighted to announce that the Prevention and Communities Commissioning
Team (part of Adult Social Care) have won the ‘Keep it Local’ Award.Issued by Locality (the national membership network supporting local community
organisations), “Keep it local
is Localities campaign calling for councils to move away from bureaucratic
commissioning and big outsourcing contracts .This award celebrates an
outstanding local authority that has instead created strong local partnerships
with local community organisations and worked in an innovative way to unlock
the power of its community.”
The commissioners say:
"We would like to take this opportunity to thank our partner organisations that deliver each Neighbourhood Network Scheme, as well as all
the many other amazing community organisations working with us to develop and
grow our communities and support the people who live within them: We would also
like to extend special thanks to Becky Debenham, CEO of Northfield Community
Partnership, who nominated the P&C team for this award."
