A steering group of interested representatives of the Voluntary and Community Sector has been holding discussions with the local authority to determine the future support needs of the voluntary sector in the borough.

As part of the discussions, a consultation of all voluntary and community organisations operating in the borough has been commissioned. The consultation is aimed at eliciting information on the support needs of voluntary and community organisations so as to be able to form a view on:

– Building relationships, networks and trust between VCS organisations
– Helping VCS organisations to be resilient, especially considering public sector funding reductions
– Leveraging funding and resources into the borough
– Ensuring the VCS has a voice and can represent their communities in strategic partnerships

We are working on a very short time frame and would be grateful if you could complete the questionnaire by 18 May 2017 so that your views will be heard. 

Please complete the online survey at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r /lambethvcs

Please, circulate this survey widely in your networks to enable others to participate.

The results of the survey will be discussed at a conference of the sector to be held on 15 June 2017.

If you require further information or have any questions please email Maxine M. James lambethvcs@equinoxconsulting.net
