Image as described above
As part of the Back Office Services and Collaboration work stream of G:up's Big Lottery funded, G:XL project, a Learning Cluster has been set up and running now for 12 months. Through this group, five outsourcing and bulk purchasing opportunities have been researched and produced to improve collaboration and to help the voluntary and community sector, children and young people's organisations to save money through shared services and reducing overheads.

This survey has been designed to help us measure the use and impact of the resources created around collaborative purchasing through the G:XL project and to ensure we are meeting your needs as VCS CYP organisations.

The survey consists of 11 simple questions. This should take between 5-10 minutes to complete.
