Sharing the Gain report
This 'how-to' guide has been written to help public service bodies to take advantage of collaborative working opportunities and reduce their costs. Sharing the Gain provides advice and practical tools to help manage the whole lifecycle of developing and running shared public services.
We hope the report will enable councils and other public bodies to take a proactive approach to collaboration initiatives, which, in turn, will help protect services against the impacts of funding reductions. Although this work has particularly focused on district councils, it is also relevant for all public bodies that have an interest in partnership working for the delivery of public services.
