The Doing the Right Thing partnership are proud to announce the launch of New Philanthropy Capital's (NPC) report Untapped Potential: Bringing the voluntary sector's strengths to health and care transformation.
NPC examined dozens of evaluations of the Richmond Group and partners' interventions to evidence where the voluntary and community sector (VCS) adds value to patients, their families and communities, the health and care system and where our strengths lie. This evidence review, along with workshops, focus groups and interviews with system leaders enabled NPC to develop frameworks for understanding the VCS’s contribution to the health and care system, and examine the barriers and enablers to VCS involvement.
The report contains recommendations for both the VCS and the health and care system in order to improve the way we work together to deliver better outcomes for individuals and communities.
