Voice of the Sector

Providing a platform for third sector organisations in Falkirk to engage with the Community Planning Partnership, and Statutory Partners.

We want to hear from you! We’ve launched an online survey to gather your feedback, and ensure the Falkirk third sector forums are relevant and useful to our sector.

We’re looking to hear from all members of the sector, particularly those who have attended forums before, on what you would like to achieve and learn from them. The survey should only take 5 minutes to complete, and is open until 11:59pm on Sunday 31^st March.

To submit your response, please visit the SurveyMonkey page.

If you have any questions regarding this survey, or any of the forums, please contact Scott Malcolm by email: scott.malcolm@cvsfalkirk.org.uk

Engaging in the various forums will ensure your group has:

A platform to communicate with Community Planning
The opportunity to be involved in influencing the agenda locally
Networking opportunities with peers to agree joint actions and services
A voice in influencing public policy & creating change
Up to date information
The knowledge to take part in consultations
Access to training
The ability to participate in local PSP initiatives
