Salford Cooperative Ambassadors

Launched in January 2015, the Salford Cooperative Ambassadors (SCA) activity is a novel and innovative approach designed to assist with the general Salford City Council transformation programme and advance collaboration and cooperation in wider Salford. It involves work with a selected cohort of key people from key ‘anchor’ organisations from all sectors who appreciate the benefits and are committed to advancing cooperation in Salford.

This report details progress made to date through this approach, and makes suggestions to the Salford Cooperative Ambassadors and to Salford City Council as to the next steps. Appendix 1 identifies key learning points.

This report has been compiled through an analysis of activity to date and from 1 to 1 interviews with the Salford Cooperative Ambassadors and Salford City Council representatives.
