A collaboration between researchers at the University of Sheffield, Leeds Beckett University and Community Partners invite you to participate in a short survey about your experiences working in the voluntary/charity sector and the support you need.
This research aims to understand more about the professional development and wellbeing support you have received and need and your perspectives about working in the sector. It is an opportunity for you to share your views. Your insights will be valuable in helping us gain a better understanding of the experiences of the paid workforce of the voluntary/charity sector. The findings will be used to inform future support and development initiatives. More information about the study is available here: Study Summary

The survey is open to voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) staff who deliver health and wellbeing services in South or West Yorkshire. These paid staff could be, for example, Health Trainers, Social Prescribers, Community Connectors, Link Workers, Youth Workers and Community Development Workers.

The survey will be open until 18 July.
All responses will be treated confidentially and used for research purposes only. Individual responses will not be shared with your employer (or any other organisations.) As a thank you for your time and contribution, participants who complete the survey and provide their contact details will be entered into a prize draw for one of six £20 vouchers.
