Your voice is important, let us help to make it heard.

Our monthly Voice E-Bulletin. We will only send you information about the work that CVS undertakes to represent the voice of the sector. We will not share your details with any third party. You can un-subscribe at any point.

The aim of the following questions is to find out from VCFS organisations:

  • What you are doing that’s making a difference
  • What you and your service-users feel are gaps in service-provision
  • Your information about  trends and messages that commissioners need to know
  • Anecdotal evidence and success stories

Please include your sources of evidence to back up your answers if available, for example service user surveys, end of year reports etc.

Meetings

Whether you enjoy meetings or dread them, they are an essential part of running a community group or charity. Meetings allow the trustees or committee to make decisions and ensure that an organisation is managed effectively and is able to meet its aims. 

Please complete the following form to include your organisation’s details to our  Voluntary, Community & Faith Directory.

To be included within this Directory, your organisation must be Voluntary, Community or Faith based and offer services within Cheshire East. 

Please note that your Organisation’s contact details will be made public, although you can choose whether to display the contact telephone number &/or address.
