The document discusses partnerships and special purpose vehicles (SPVs) in securing contracts for voluntary and community services. It provides examples of how Hackney CVS has used an SPV model to secure over £6 million in contracts to provide services like luncheon clubs, carers support, and programs to prevent social isolation among older people. It also outlines some risks and requirements to consider for partnerships applying for European Social Funds, such as having a clear agreement on budgets, payments, and responsibilities for all partners.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

2. Background to City & Hackney Together SPV
•We heard in 2011 that Hackney Council was
considering cutting lunch clubs funding
•Worked with Council to look at alternatives
•Based our approach on Special Purpose
Vehicle (SPV) in Manchester (GMCVO)
•Secured £50k development money from
Council to develop SPV… the overall process
took 2 years.
3. Why a Special Purpose Vehicle [SPV]?
• Health and social care increasingly using
contracts but is applicable to other areas
• Securing contracts – this is a bidding and
contract holding entity, not an organisation
• Ensuring supply chain diversity is
maintained and its vital role recognised
4. • Hackney CVS now managing £120k luncheon club
contracts and supporting 16 clubs to develop and work in
partnership
• SPV has secured £270k three year Carers Contract for
Hackney with 15 partners
• Hackney CVS has secured £5.86m from Big Lottery
Fund using the SPV to provide coordinated services
(Connect Hackney) to older people to prevent social
isolation with 38 VCS and public sector partners
• SPV is leading £1.25 million bid to CCG (One Hackney)
to reduce hospital admissions and improve discharge
rates
Where are we now?
5. ESF partnerships – risks and
requirements
• What do you think the Lottery/DWP/SFA expects to see from a lead and
partners? [see BLF guide]
As a small group based in one borough that wishes to be a partner and
not a lead, what do you need to look for in a lead organisation in
addition to that listed in the BLF guidance?
Do you want a delivery based organisation or an SPV type lead body?
If you are based in only one borough, how will you fit in to a bid that
covers 8 boroughs e.g. Wandsworth, Lambeth, Southwark, Lewisham,
City of London, Islington, Camden, Westminster, Kensington & Chelsea?
Conflict of interest – what is the lead seeking to deliver directly itself? Is
it only “crumbs” for partners? Are there too many partners for each to
receive a reasonable amount of funds to be effective? How much of
funding will lead take to manage the project?
6. ESF partnerships – risks and
Requirements (cont.)
A theoretical example of an ESF specification:
• Total budget for specification X for a sub region (around 8 boroughs) is
worth £750,000 over 3 years
• Annual budget = £250,000
• Lead partner takes £35,000p/a to manage the contract = £215,000 p/a
budget
• The project covers 8 boroughs = £26,875 available p/a per borough
Qs arising from the above example for potential localised partners:
• Will you be the sole delivery partner in your borough?
• Will the budget allocated to you be sufficient?
• What does the partnership agreement you have say about payment schedules
and support in the case of under-performance?
• Don’t sign any partnership agreement unless it is explicit and clear about what
you will be delivering, your budget and payment arrangements.
