The experiences of Hampshire’s voluntary sector
The experiences of Hampshire’s voluntary sector
Action Hampshire, carried out some research into Local Commissioning in Hampshire at the end of 2017.
Lloyds Bank Foundation recently published a report: “Commissioning in Crisis. How current contracting and procurement processes threaten the survival of small charities”.
They carried out research with a range of smaller charities across the UK. The report made alarming reading, so Action Hampshire carried out its own survey to see if findings were replicated at a local level in Hampshire.
Approach
An on-line survey was circulated around Hampshire’s voluntary and community sector organisations in October/November 2017.
181 responses were received answering 12 questions relating to local commissioning practices.
