About Us

The Infrastructure Consortium is made up of organisations in the County that offer some or all of the following services:
It includes organisations that are there to support groups with a specific focus (on older people, younger people or black and ethnic minorities) as well as those that offer services to all the groups in their area or county-wide.

The Consortium's current ten-year Strategy and Diversity Strategy are available below.

The Consortium works closely with the local authority in Herefordshire as well as with the Herefordshire Partnership and other voluntary sector networks. A "Wider Reference Group" which includes people from both voluntary and statutory agencies supports the Consortium and advises it on its work programme.

The Infrastructure Consortium was formed in 2003 in response to the government’s ChangeUp agenda - a government programme that has been set up to improve the support and assistance that is available to voluntary organisations and community groups nation-wide.


What is "Infrastructure"?

"The physical facilities, structures, systems, relationships, people, knowledge and skills that help frontline organisations and community groups to achieve their aims".
