The voluntary and community sector in Bromley today

This survey is designed to collect information on the state of our local Voluntary and Community Sector (VCS or 'the sector' from here on) in Bromley. This information will be used to create a clearer idea of the size of the sector and who uses the services of the sector, how confident you are about collaborating with other organisations and what you think the future holds, as well as how well positioned you are to engage with statutory bodies on the key issues such as funding, premises, strategy and measuring impact.

Are there rules for this survey?

No. Please feel free to pick and choose which questions you reply to, although the more complete the answers the more reliable our findings. We have not made any questions in this survey compulsory. We recommend setting aside 10-15 minutes (maximum) for this survey. We also recommend this survey is answered by a senior member of staff or an individual with strategic decision making responsibilities.
