Local collaboration and partnership

Collaboration is the key to achieving long-term, sustainable change in our region.

We cannot begin to address some of the entrenched issues in our area unless we work collaboratively. Different organisations hold different pieces of the jigsaw puzzle that, slotted together, mean we can make real change happen in the West of England.  

Meeting the needs of our communities

We all want to see an effective, joined-up and well-resourced voluntary sector that addresses the vital needs and aspirations of local communities. So, if we’re going to really make this happen, then collaboration and partnership is key.

Our partners

Quartet works with a huge range of local organisations and individuals, bringing with us the knowledge, networks, research and experience we’ve built up over decades. Our independence, long history and our permanent endowment model give us the ability to contribute a long-term perspective on how to make positive change in our region.

• Bristol City Funds
