The Forum’s representatives on statutory partnership bodies are called ‘Forum Voices’. Voluntary and Community Sector organisations may nominate paid staff, volunteers or trustees to partnership bodies, with elections taking place at the AGMs of both The Forum and Reading Children's & Voluntary Youth Services (RCVYS).
Forum Voices work on several initiatives including: the Local Strategic Partnership, the Social Inclusion Advisory Group and the Reading Compact; and on statutory/voluntary and community sector partnerships working for children and young people, older people and for people with drug, alcohol, disability and health-related issues. This strategic partnership work with statutory agencies takes place where key decisions are made on the way Reading services are delivered.
