Questions for Voluntary and Community Groups

Derbyshire County Council (DCC) is proposing to end the discretionary grant funding to voluntary and community organisations (VCOs) in Derbyshire from 1^st April 2025. This proposal will apply to all the VCOs including Links CVS which provides support, information, and advice to frontline groups. This proposal by DCC will affect your group’s access to advice on funding, setting up and running a group, policy development and compliance with the law, etc. As the local Council for Voluntary Service (CVS), Links is asking for your support to put together a co-ordinated response to reflect the views of VCOs in Chesterfield and NE Derbyshire.

Please fill out the survey here.

Please complete the survey by 27th June 2024

(If you require a printed version of the questionnaire, please contact us at info@linkscvs.org.uk)

The Links office is open from 10:00am-4:00pm Monday to Friday.
