The response to CWVYS survey has demonstrated that the voluntary youth sector in Wales has responded and risen to the challenge of Covid-19 swiftly and admirably, less than 8% of Members surveyed reported no operational change.
You can find the full report here: CWVYS Report on the impact of Covid-19 on the Voluntary Youth Sector in Wales. It should automatically download and those using screen readers should be able to access text descriptions of the graphs and charts.
While it is clear the sector has serious concerns about the future post lockdown, many have quickly adapted their services, repurposed resources and continued to support the communities they work within.
We are grateful to all who responded to our survey, given the demands on peoples’ attention and the increase in stress and uncertainty over the last few months, the fact that our Members took the time to respond is not something we have taken for granted. Thank you to those Members who supplied us with a wealth of information, we hope this report has been useful to all CWVYS Members and the wider sector.
We aim to continue this survey quarterly this financial year. If the issues raised in this report resonate within your organisation, or you see opportunities for engagement and support across the sector, you can find a list of CWVYS Members on our website: https://www.cwvys.org.uk/members/
We are sure Members would welcome the connection. The value of the sector is in its Members and how you support each other.
