NE & North Cumbria VCSE Sector COVID-19 survey – April 2020

Help VONNE, VCSE Local Infrastructure Organisations (LIOs) and members of the NE & Cumbria Funders Network to understand the ongoing impact of COVID-19 on you and your beneficiaries.

Giving us this information helps us understand the impact of COVID-19 so we can effectively represent the sector and influence how funders focus their support now and in the future recovery period. The findings will also be shared with stakeholders including local authorities, LEPs, private sector organisations and the health system, to make the case for additional support and resources for the sector, and with national infrastructure partners including NCVO, ACEVO, NAVCA and the Charity Finance Group, to help us influence Government decisions affecting the sector.

By completing this survey, you give VONNE your permission to share the analysis of the information provided with the Local Infrastructure Organisations covering the areas you work in, as well as the stakeholders mentioned above.

We realise how busy you are and that survey responses are being asked of you by a number of parties at the current time, but your input is vital to enable us to work more effectively on your behalf and that of the sector in the North East region and North Cumbria. The survey will take no more than 15 minutes of your time, and we’re aware that you may not have exact facts and figures to hand, so your best estimate is appreciated.
