Support Key Sector Research on Challenges for the Community Sector

Posted on 27 Aug 2025

Under the Power to Change initiative, Sligo PPN has partnered with Atlantic Technological University to undertake a piece of research to form a solid evidence base on the key challenges facing the sector and what this means for grass roots community activity and volunteering. 

The survey, which is intended to be of benefit to the entire PPN network and the broader community sector, aims to collect evidence of the challenges faced by community groups and make recommendations on the supports needed for groups to operate successfully and thrive. 

The survey will take no more than 10-15 minutes to complete and the deadline is close of business on Tuesday 23 September.
