CHARITIES and community groups in Darlington could win £500 by taking part in a survey.
Darlington Centre for Voluntary Services (CVS) is undertaking a poll of voluntary and community organisations to build a picture of the sector in Darlington, and show the important contribution volunteers make.
The CVS, which has sent the survey out to more than 540 groups, has decided to launch the prize draw after a disappointing response.
It is also hoped the survey, which has the backing of Darlington Borough Council, will identify any groups that may need support to improve their service delivery.
The results of the poll may also attract more financial support into the borough's voluntary sector. All information collected will be treated in confidence.
Any organisations who have not yet received a questionnaire can download one from www.darlingtoncvs. org.uk/whats_on.htm or call 01325-266888.
