The DASV Partnership

Important update for partners - Feb 2025

A decision has been made by mutual agreement of the respective Local Authority Chief Executives to decouple the DASV Partnership across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. 

In Cambridgeshire County Council this, coupled with reduction in grant funding, has required the need to consult on a restructure to the service.

A summary for partners along with details of how to comment can be found below.
