How partnership works
PKF Schemes take MPs and Peers to meet the people, hear the voices and see the impacts of the organisations at the heart of our communities. Partners make that possible: they help shape what a Scheme covers, open their doors for visits and modules, and support the blended funding model that keeps the Foundation independent.
Ways to partner
Scheme partner: support a Scheme across its programme year, alongside other organisations from the same sector.
Module partner: host or co-deliver a visit, workshop or briefing that gives a cohort first-hand experience of your work.
Advisory Committee member: help design a Scheme so that it represents the sector fairly and reflects the questions that matter.
Partner guidelines
1. Non-partisan. We work with and for all political parties. A partnership is a way to build understanding, not to lobby, campaign or seek political advantage.
2. Balanced. Every Scheme brings in a range of voices from across its sector. Partners take part alongside others, not in place of them.
3. Independent. Our Board and Advisory Committees keep editorial control of Scheme content and of which MPs take part.
4. Transparent. Partnerships are recorded, and partners may be listed on our website and in our progress reporting.
5. Experience first. The best modules give MPs real access to people, places and decisions, rather than presentations.
