To allocate £535,000 of Oldham’s
Live Well Implementation Fund to Action Together CIO to support the
delivery of the VCFSE led elements of Oldham’s Live Well
implementation plan
RESOLVED - That:
£535,000 is allocated to Action Together CIO to support the
delivery of the VCFSE led elements of Oldham’s Live Well
implementation plan. As the Local Infrastructure Organisation (LIO)
for the Voluntary, Community, Faith & Social Enterprise (VCFSE)
sector in Oldham they will coordinate delivery and provide
administration support to the distribution of funds to partners
within the VCFSE sector as required.
Option 1 - £535,000 is allocated to
Action Together CIO to support the delivery of the VCFSE led
elements of Oldham’s Live Well implementation plan. This is
in line with the expectation of the Live Well Implementation Funds
awarded to Oldham by GMCA & NHS GM. As the Local Infrastructure
Organisation (LIO) for the Voluntary, Community, Faith & Social
Enterprise (VCFSE) sector in Oldham they will coordinate delivery
and provide administration support to the distribution of funds to
partners within the VCFSE sector as required.
Option 2 – Do not allocate funds to Action Together CIO. This
will result in elements of Oldham’s Implementation Plan not
being delivered. This would not be in line with the conditions of
the grant from GMCA to award a minimum of 50% of funds to the VCFSE
so may result in claw back of funds by GMCA.
