Have Your Say: State of the Sector Survey

Volunteer Centre West Berkshire is the local VCSE infrastructure organisation for West Berkshire. We strengthen charities, community groups and social enterprises through funding and governance advice, training, volunteer development, partnership working, and representation on key statutory boards.

It has been some time since a local State of the Sector survey was undertaken, and we are pleased to announce that our new survey is now live. We are inviting leaders of charities and voluntary organisations across West Berkshire to complete the survey on behalf of their organisation.

As the collective voice of the sector locally, this survey will help us better understand the challenges, opportunities and emerging pressures facing VCSE organisations. Your insight will directly inform our strategic priorities, shape how we advocate for the sector, and ensure that the needs and experiences of local organisations are reflected in discussions with funders, commissioners and public sector partners.

By contributing, you are helping to build a stronger, more resilient voluntary and community sector across West Berkshire.
