Summary

We developed a survey for mutual aid groups which asked questions about the number of participants, activities they were carrying out, challenges they faced, what worked well, resources they found useful and relationships with other organisations (Appendix 1).

The Survey was open for responses for four weeks from 12th May - 9th June 2020. We received 38 responses in total from across 18 different boroughs. We also held an online conversation with 20 individuals from 13 groups on the 26th May 2020.

This report outlines findings from this qualitative data and sets out observations and recommendations that that can be used to inform future conversations and policy discussion with mutual aid groups, the volunteering sector and strategic partners.
