The Greenwich Partnership works alongside a number of organisations aiming to bring benefits to the local and business communities in the Borough.
Greenwich Community Network
The Greenwich Community Network (GCN) gives local people a voice to make their views known and brings local communities together.
The network provides a channel for local people to contribute to the Greenwich Strategy and the development of the Local Area Agreement (LAA).
The GCN elects representatives onto the Greenwich Partnership Board ensuring the community become involved in developing local plans and strategies.

ChangeUp Greenwich
ChangeUp is a Government programme, aimed at supporting the development of the Voluntary and Community Sector over the next ten years. The programme aims to strengthen those Voluntary and Community Sector Organisations (known as 'infrastructure organisations') who provide support and information services to frontline Voluntary and Community Organisations (known as 'the sector').
The Greenwich LINk
The Greenwich LINk is an independent network that has its own workplan and priorities influenced by the health and social care needs of the people of the borough. Parkwood Healthcare supports the network, through funding provided by the Department of Health. The Greenwich LINk is hosted by Parkwood Healthcare, working in partnership with Greenwich Council.
GAVS - The new CVS for Greenwich
Greenwich Action for Voluntary Service (GAVS) exists to provide a strategic leadership role in representing the views of the sector. It seeks to enable, facilitate and promote models of excellence in the provision of services that support the delivery and development of voluntary, community and faith organisations and those that work with them in Greenwich.
