  3. State of the sector… • 45,000 voluntary organisations • 23,000 registered charities • £4.1 billion turnover in 2007/8 • 64% have less than £25,000 turnover • 62% of resources go to the biggest 5% of the sector • 130,000 paid staff, equivalent to 5% of Scottish workforce • 1.3 million volunteers

  5. Public and Charity Perspectives: OSCR’s 2009 Surveys 0 = no trust and 10 = trust them completely The University of Nottingham

  6. Quality “The Care Commission has provided figures to the Scottish Parliament's Local Government and Communities Committee meeting in June, showing that 89-92% of voluntary sector care at home services receive only high gradings (4s, 5s and 6s) whereas this is achieved by only 65-72% of services operated by local authorities and the private sector. Taking into account the likely unit costs of such services, this appears to indicate that voluntary sector care at home services may be the optimum Best Value option.”

  8. SCVO Annual Members’ survey In coping with the recession, 65% of respondents either said they had done ok but not great (47.2%) or that it had been difficult (17.7%). 51.8% of respondents felt either unsure or concerned about their job prospects, compared with 12 months ago. 67.7% were unsure or concerned about the prospects for future funding of their organisation. And almost half (48%) felt either unsure or concerned about the overall future of their organisation.

  12. The scale of the challenge: mental health - depression • By 2020, depression the second greatest disease burden western world (WHO) • Scotland 2003, GP consultations for depression = 719,000; prescription costs 2004/05 £58m (all data: ISD)

  13. The scale of the challenge: long-term conditions • In Scotland, 1million people with long term conditions (LTCs), disability • LTCs account for 80% GP consultations • LTCs account for over 60% of hospital bed days • Costs – enormous, hard to estimate, but: • COPD £98.5m (2004/05) • Epilepsy £38m (all data: Audit Scotland)
