Lunchtime Learning - Fife Benefits: Supporting Businesses to Benefit Communities
Created: 2/8/2023, Updated: 2/8/2023FVA lunchtime learning sessions are aimed at raising the skills and capacities of local service providers interested in improving or enhancing their provision in Fife.
Join us at this session to formally launch and find out more about Fife Benefits - our online approach to matching local communities and good causes with businesses with the aim of maximising community benefits across the Kingdom.
As part of Fife's ongoing commitment to Community Wealth Building, we and our partners want to ensure that community benefits are maximised in our local procurement processes. A community benefit can be many things, but it is simply defined as a measurable uplift, upscale, and improvement in things, services, and places that local people identify as being important to them and their communities (such as reparations/improvements to community spaces, sourcing excess materials/items, and/or various types of logistical support) - this list is not exhaustive.
This is why, in partnership with NHS Fife, we have developed Fife Benefits, which enables communities to put forward worthy proposals to fill local needs and wants while allowing businesses to consider these requests and decide for themselves what projects they can best assist with and in what way.
At this session, we and representatives from NHS Fife will introduce you to Fife Benefits, and its aims, and we'll talk you through how the online portal works for communities and businesses.
This session is open to anyone interested in finding out more about Fife Benefits.
