Got a burning question? Send it in advance to [email protected]. All questions are kept anonymous, so don't hold back! No question is too basic, and the more we receive, the more the session can be tailored to what you actually want to know.

📢 The Empowering Communities Partnership's State of the Norfolk VCSE Sector Survey is back! As one of the partners, we know first-hand how much the data we gather shapes how we advocate for and support organisations like yours.

We're asking Norfolk charities, social enterprises and community groups to take just 15 minutes to tell us about your organisation, what you need, and what's working (or not!). Every response genuinely strengthens the case we can make on behalf of the sector. The more voices we hear, the better!

⏳ Deadline: Monday 14th September 2026, 5pm
🔗 Have your say: https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/t/SPYN85

🙏 We'd also like to say a huge thank you to everyone who has already completed the survey, you are brilliant!
