The coronavirus situation has created huge challenge, anxiety, upheaval and change across our country and within our borough. This has affected every part of daily life for Sandwell residents and for businesses, public sector providers and of course charities and community organisations.
As local VCS organisations, many of you have already provided us with information about new activities and services which you’re putting in place to support local communities, as well as requests for support and offers of help. This feedback has been invaluable in our efforts, with local strategic partners, to secure resources for the Sector and to join up local activities. Thank you to all who’ve responded to date.
This quick survey is SEVEN SHORT QUESTIONS by which we hope to understand the picture across the wider Sector. The aim is to help us to..
· Provide support for your organisation and others right now
· Hear your views on current impacts in the community
· Anticipate your future support needs and begin to plan for how we can support you and the Sector
