A public service mutual is an organisation which has left the public sector but continues to deliver public services. Mutuals are organisations in which employee control plays a significant role in their operation.
An advice line for anyone looking to deliver public services using the mutual model has been launched by the government, along with a website. For more details, contact the advice line on 0845 5390 543 or log onto http://mutuals.cabinetoffice.gov.uk.
