NCS Trust Quality Assessments

Notice Description

NCS Trust uses third party organisations to assess NCS Trust's delivery partners to ensure NCS activities are consistently being delivered safely and to a high standard. Currently the NCS Trust assesses partners for Quality Assurance purposes and for Health & Safety compliance (including safeguarding). As NCS programmes and activities expand, we add new service lines and numbers of participants increase, there is a growing importance on ensuring quality, consistency and continuous improvement.
