Shaping Support for Dudley Borough’s Voluntary Sector **YOUR CHANCE TO WIN £350 FOR YOUR ORGANISATION**

Like many charities and not-for-private profits across the country, Dudley borough’s Voluntary and Community Sector (VCS) organisations have faced many challenges during 2023/24, many relating to the current cost of living crisis. Dudley CVS is seeking feedback from local VCS organisations on what is going well, not so well and what support they need now to ensure they remain healthy and sustainable so they can continue providing effective local support to Dudley residents.

Organisations are currently enduring a range of financial, inflationary and workforce pressures, as well as significant demands on services. Statutory organisations are also facing significant financial pressures.

To inform Dudley CVS as it shapes and plans its support for the Sector, local VCOs are being invited to share with us their current priorities and challenges, and their thoughts on developing and sustaining their activities and services in the future. The findings from this survey will be shared with local strategic partners.

Dudley CVS really values feedback from our local members and invites all active VCS groups and organisations to complete this short survey by 5pm Friday 28th June. When you return your survey your organisation will be entered into a prize draw where one organisation will win £350.

Information you share in this survey will be STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL to Dudley CVS alone.
