KCSC wanted to share with you the first ever collective impact report from the London CVS Network. It aims to spotlight the vital role of local CVSs (and other local infrastructure organisations) in connecting, supporting and strengthening the sector.
It shows the extensive reach of the network into the communities through their own networks of voluntary and community groups. It highlights the number of organisations supported and represented by London’s infrastructure organisations. It spotlights activities over the course of an unprecedented year, with large sums leveraged into the wider sector. It also shows the potential that could be reached if there were similar organisations in every London borough.
We hope this report will provide some useful London context to inform a strategic and collaborative response from funders to the infrastructure funding challenge. For those funders new to funding infrastructure, we hope it will be enlightening and encourage them to see infrastructure differently.
The report can be viewed here.
