Reflect, Recover, Renew

Creating a Shared Vision for the VCFSE Sector in Somerset.

A VCFSE Sector that is: Collaborative, Community-led, Coordinated, Recognised and Appropriately FundedFunded by Somerset County Council and Somerset Community Foundation, and delivered by Spark Somerset, Reflect, Recover, Renew investigates the impact of Covid-19 and creates a shared vision for the future of the voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) sector in Somerset.

Commencing in June 2021, this five-month, qualitative project aimed to identify the implications of Covid-19 on Somerset’s communities and VCSEs, providing insights into current and future needs.

The conclusions drawn are co-produced with contributions of participants from a range of VCSE organisations. In all, 270 people representing 190 separate VCSEs across Somerset shared their experiences.

The project, in collaboration with colleagues across the VCSE sector, has laid a strong foundation for a shared vision to guide the sector’s renewal and future growth.
