Tameside MBC Children's Services Provider Forums



We held the first Provider Forum in July 2020 and will continue to hold further forums as we strongly believe that holding Provider Forums is an opportunity for providers to share best practice and Childrens services to update providers on recent changes.

The ambition is to create space for regular conversations with our key suppliers, for us to update providers on specific issues within the service, problem solve together, share new developments and policies and to work together to co-produce services.

We will also be inviting a number of our colleagues within Children’s Services and colleagues from the wider strategic commission who may want to have some specific discussions with Providers in relation to themed developments in their areas of work.    

We are aiming to arrange the forums on a monthly basis, held virtually with a tight agenda.

If you require any further information, or would like to attend, or have an idea for a topic for one of the Future Meetings below please do not hesitate to contact Nick Ellwood on nick.ellwood@tameside.gov.uk or Mob 07976931066
