The number of not-for-profit organisations working in partnership is increasing. With a growing number of public funders putting their trust and money in larger alliances and partnerships over smaller organisations, building a partnership with a compatible not-forprofit organisation that shares your ethics and services is becoming a serious route for organisations to extend their reach.

So, how do you establish a mutually valuable partnership with another organisation? This guide will lead you through each crucial stage; from agreeing a clear vision and establishing what you want to achieve together, to advice on developing a strategy that supports the needs of all partners and stakeholders, as well as examining the resources and management needed to progress the partnership and achieve your objectives.
