The London Compact Awards aims to bring together organisations working on a range of crucial themes: poverty and the recession, health and wellbeing, employment and skills, climate change and sustainability. It celebrates successful joint working between the third sector and the public sector.
This year the awards were presented by Sir Bert Massie. The full list of those who received awards and commendations is as follows:
The London Compact Working Group was established by the Government Office for London in January 2006 to support the development and implementation of local and regional Compacts in the capital by drawing on good practice to share with partners. Every local authority area in London now has a Compact and London was the first region in England to develop a regional Compact. “Working Together: a Compact on relations between the Mayor of London, London Development Agency, Transport for London and London’s Voluntary and Community Sector” was launched on 6 April 2003.
