Dosti is a ‘network of networks’. Networks who become members of Dosti are collectives of a majority of community groups, voluntary organisations and/or faith groups. The 15 networks in Dosti’s membership between them embrace around 800 local groups.
Dosti’s member networks come in all shapes and sizes! They have vastly different structures and feel different when you get involved in them. However they have all been developed because of a perceived benefit in bringing
people together around a shared interest or concern. And they are all eager to influence local public agencies and partnerships, which Dosti is here to help them to do!
Many people are confused about the difference between Dosti and Dudley CVS – and there are some blurry edges! However Dosti and Dudley CVS staff
work closely together (we’re based in the same offices) to eliminate duplication and to join forces when that seems the best option. |
