Supporting communities and not-for-profit organisations

How should the council support local communities and not-for-profit organisations in the borough?

Hammersmith & Fulham Council is proud to be one of the few local authorities that continues to make significant investment in its voluntary, community and social enterprise sector despite serious financial challenges from decreasing funding from Central Government. This investment plays a vital role in making our borough a stronger, safer and kinder place to live.

We are now reviewing our approach to how we strengthen partnerships across the borough and how we invest in communities. We want to ensure the activities we fund have the greatest possible benefit for residents and we want your views.

We want to create a more joined-up and sustainable approach, bringing funding together and focusing more on helping residents earlier, preventing problems from getting worse, and building stronger partnerships across the borough. This survey will inform how we invest for the future, including how we use Neighbourhood Community Infrastructure Levy funding, which will provide of up £3 million over the next three years.

This survey will help us understand what matters most to you, what works well, and what could be improved. Upon completion of the survey, you will be entered into a draw for the chance to win a £50 love2shop voucher.

The survey will close on 16 November. It should take around 15 minutes to complete.
