Hi everybody

We are really pushing the study below and would realty appreciate as many Blackburn with Darwen based charities, community groups and social enterprises to complete the survey by the end of the week.  If we get enough responses Professor Tony Chapman has agreed to do a Blackburn with Darwen report, which we will use to lobby for changes locally that will benefit your groups and organisations.  Thank you to all the organisations that have already completed the survey and if you haven’t please please please complete it this week.

Best wishes

Final Call for Third Sector Trends Study in North West England 2022 

You’ll probably have seen about this study by now. So far 5,080 voluntary and community organisations and social enterprises have joined so far in England and Wales and over 600 in the North West.   

We really need you to take part in the North West so that we can build a picture of what is happening locally, what has changed since 2019 and what you think is going to happen next. 

It’s quick, interesting, easy to do. You can do it on your phone, tablet, laptop or PC.  

All answers are securely stored completely anonymously and confidentially.   

If you want to know more about the study, contact Professor Tony Chapman, St Chad’s College, Durham University, 18 North Bailey, Durham DH1 3RH, tony.chapman@durham.ac.uk
