”We partnered with the VODG for a number of reasons, not least because we recognised the extraordinary work the VODG does every day to support their members, many of which are our clients. Given that Marr Procurement, the care sector procurement specialist, works with over 60 care providers in the UK, the advice and guidance we've received from the VODG has been invaluable. We look forward to continuing our relationship for years to come.

Our support for VODG members
Free 30 minute consultation with our expert team
We understand how challenging it is for decision-makers within the voluntary sector to access trustworthy, impartial expert advice without investing a lot of time and money. To assist the VODG community, we offer a free 30 minute virtual consultation to discuss any procurement concerns you may have.
How we can help:
We are a full-service procurement specialist and are experts in purchasing all cost areas in which care organisations invest and spend – from operational to strategic levels.
Enabling our clients to deliver more of their best work is at the heart of what we do. At its simplest level, our approach is to identify savings for our clients, deliver those savings, and then work to ensure they are retained by the organisation for the long-term. Our experienced team will work with your organisation’s leadership and operational staff to ensure alignment with all of our activities throughout the programme journey, and critically, to ensure continuity and quality of care is prioritised.
