Dear colleague,
Clinks and the National Criminal Justice Arts Alliance (NCJAA) have launched the State of the sector survey 2023. This is your chance to tell us about the challenges your organisation has faced over the last year and to help us influence key decision makers on your behalf and ensure that our support meets your needs.
Make your voice heard
We are calling on all arts specialist individuals and organisations working in criminal justice to complete the 2023 survey. The NCJAA has helped shape the survey to encourage, and provide opportunity for, individuals and organisations in the arts and criminal justice sector to have their voices heard. Survey findings will be reported in our State of the sector 2023 report, with plans to create a mini-report focussing specifically on the input from arts sector professionals; both as independent artists and practitioners, and staff or trustee representatives of organisations in our network.
We regularly meet with HM Prison and Probation Service and the Ministry of Justice to speak up on behalf of artists and arts organisations in the criminal justice voluntary sector, but we need up-to-date evidence to do this effectively. That is why we are asking you to complete the survey. The data that we get from our State of the sector survey provides us with extensive and highly-respected evidence which is presented to a wide range of stakeholders. The data that you give us also allows us to showcase the amazing work that you do and highlight the services that you provide to support those that are in the criminal justice system.
Read Clinks' blog: State of the sector 2023 survey: why your response is crucial to find out more about how we use your responses and why your voice matters!
How do I take part?
Simply click the link and get started! We will ask about your organisation’s criminal justice work including the clients you support, commissioning and referrals, staffing, and volunteers. Please have numbers ready from the 2022-2023 financial year.
The survey closes on Monday 7 August. Please contact Clinks Policy Officer, Franklin Barrington, at franklin.barrington@clinks.org for any questions about the survey or accessibility requirements.
Help us to keep on supporting you, and organisations like you, and make your voice heard!
