Posted on July 10, 2015

CVS Falkirk are currently conducting research into the third sector as a whole in the Falkirk area, aiming to highlight the financial and social value of the sector and the difference made by third sector organisations. This will also allow us to gain up to date figures on the third sector in the Falkirk area.

In order to be able to gain this information, we have created a survey to be filled in by third sector organisations operating in the Falkirk area.

Please click on the following link https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/cvsimpactsurvey to fill in the online survey. It is also available in hard copy so please get in contact if you would like a printed version.

The deadline for completing the survey will be Wednesday 15^th of July and all information provided will be kept confidential. The survey should take around 10 minutes to complete.

The more information we are able to collect, the more powerful this research can be. This is a real opportunity to be able to promote the importance of the third sector in our local area.

If you have any questions about this research please contact Jennifer Kean on Jennifer2@cvsfalkirk.org.uk or on 01324 692021.
