We at CVS Falkirk are building evidence for our 2019 Impact Measure Report to examine and celebrate the value of the third sector in the Falkirk area. The survey is open to all third sector organisations operating in the Falkirk Council area – including charities, social enterprises, community and voluntary groups.

Along with being published on the CVS Falkirk website, this report will be presented to key strategic partners in Falkirk, including the Community Planning Partnership (CPP) and Integration Joint Board (IJB) for Health and Social Care, which provides the opportunity to illustrate the vital role the third sector has in helping people and delivering vital services across the Falkirk Council area.

The deadline for responses is 9am Tuesday 6^th August.

To complete the survey, please visit the SurveyMonkey page.
