If we get enough local responses, we will look to commission Durham University to do a local report for Blackburn with Darwen, which we can use to promote the sector, lobby for change, resources, etc. so we would really appreciate your help and support to complete the survey and encourage every local VCFSE organisation you know or involved with to complete the survey as well.
The more responses, the better quality data and the more impact we will be able to have. Every response counts.
If you would prefer for Syka to come and meet with you to complete the survey together, she is happy to do so 😊 - please get in touch if you would like to meet Syka.
