Camden State of the Sector Report
This research was commissioned by VAC, Camden Council and the other Camden Infrastructure Partners to help local stakeholders better understand the strengths and challenges of Camden’s civil society in today’s operating environment, as well as support requirement. By analysing a mix of primary and secondary data, supplemented by interviews with local stakeholders, we identified contributory factors to a challenging ten years. The sector has been hit by financial and demand pressures associated with these unprecedented times. Changes to workforce and operational practices identified by this research project will hopefully help identify opportunities to better meet the needs of the sector. The State of the Camden Voluntary and Community Sector Report presents the sector’s support requirements against some of the biggest challenges for the VCS the research identifies.
