Social Finance UK and Positive Families Partnership SIB have/had a generic relationship

Partner Social Finance UK
Partner Positive Families Partnership SIB
Start Date 2015-00-00
Notes The scheme began three years ago when not-for-profit organisation Social Finance, backed by money from the Big Lottery Fund, went into partnership with the Greater London Authority. As these services would normally be too expensive for a cash-poor local authority to invest in, the appeal is that they will only pay back the money if the project succeeds in keeping children with their families. As Terry Clark, head of social care commissioning at Sutton, says: “From a council’s perspective, it’s a risk-free way of funding. The councils don’t lose anything.”
