Durham County Council has won the Excellence in Social Value Award at the National GO Awards, which celebrate organisations and initiatives that are setting new standards in delivering social value through procurement.
The award recognises the council’s County Durham Pound programme, launched in 2021 to maximise the impact of public sector spending by bringing together housing providers, emergency services, education partners and other organisations.
Through the initiative, the council aims to ensure every pound spent generates measurable benefits for residents while embedding social value into service planning and delivery.
