CFG Small Charity Survey 2026

Small charities are the backbone of communities across the country, delivering vital services often with limited resources and under increasing pressure. We want to understand what's really going on for you, and what's keeping you up at night.

This short survey should take no more than 5 minutes to complete. It covers your charity's current financial confidence, the challenges you're navigating, your experience of processes like Gift Aid, and the support available to you. Depending on your charity's income level and staffing model, you may see a small number of additional questions tailored to your situation.

Your responses will be used to build a clearer picture of the pressures facing small charities right now. The findings will inform our advocacy work and help us make the case for better support for the sector.
