📢 Have your say in the State of the Sector 2026 survey!

We've made it easier than ever to take part - just 10 minutes to help tell the story of Wiltshire's voluntary and community sector.

Your response helps us understand what's working, what's challenging, and what support organisations need. Last year's results helped influence local partnerships, create new fundraising opportunities, and raise awareness of the pressures facing charities and community groups.

Every response counts. Whether you're a small volunteer-led group or a larger organisation, your experience matters.

Together, we can build a stronger voice for our sector.

Thank you for everything you do for our communities. 💙
