Survey of the Hertfordshire VCS workforce

NEW Hertfordshire VCS workforce survey for 2022

HCF Training and Development has been commissioned by Hertfordshire County Council Adult Care Services to conduct a survey in order to evaluate the voluntary sector workforce in Hertfordshire. We have created a simple survey to find out more about the people who work in charities, what they do and how this has changed in response to COVID-19. We are capturing this at an organisational and individual level.

Thank you for taking the time to complete the survey, the full report will be available to view from September 2022.
