SCCF supports voluntary sector groups working in health and social care or with children and families in the borough. Southwark Children's and Families Alliance ( SCFA ) is our children and families wing;   SCCF supports voluntary and community groups working with adults.

We work with a wide range of organisations, from those with just one or two people, to national charities that operate in the borough. Frequently we act as the bridge between state provision and the vital contribution of the voluntary sector. Engaging the voluntary, community and statutory sectors in partnership working is a vital role for SCCF ; ensuring the voice of the voluntary sector is heard and acted on. We actively encourage collaboration and joint working amongst the sector, realising its benefits.
