Compact

Compacts are agreements between public bodies and the voluntary and community sector in England to improve the relationships for mutual advantage.

More information is available on the Compact website. This includes information on local compacts.

Compact Voice acts as the voice of the voluntary and community sector in relation to the Compact.

The Compact Advocacy Programme is a scheme that provides practical support and wider campaigning to the sector in cases where the Government has breached the Compact.
