Reduced funding means reduced services - how do we counter this as we cannot keep projects going.
Cuts in services
An expectation that the voluntary sector will continue to be seen as a replacement for statutory services - paid less to deliver more.
VCS struggling to deliver services
Lack of funding for community groups.
eg. too much time chasing grants
eg. lack of Trusts willing to fund core costs/staffing
eg. statutory sector offloading clients onto voluntary sector without funding
eg lack of clarity on who CCG decision makers are regarding funding
eg. CCG moving funding goalposts
eg. rural communities smaller numbers of people
