We've just launched our fourth State of the Sector survey and we need to hear from you!
The survey explores key areas such as finances, #volunteering, #partnerships, and of course the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic; it is only by understanding what is happening in #communities, and what is facing you in the future, that CAVA, the public sector and funders can understand where to put our efforts to support you.
The closing date for completed surveys is Sunday, 31st October 2021
