||development process includes a priority<br>-<br>setting exercise which<br>provides an opportunity for ensuring the staff are not overloaded.|
|---|---|
|Dependency of limited income sources; funding<br>sources becoming harder to access because of<br>economic downturn|EFN has a very diverse membership and works in areas<br>(environment and its intersection with social and health issues)<br>with many potential funders to approach.  It has good<br>relationships with existing funders and a broad range of funders<br>to approach for bot<br>h membership contributions and grants.  We<br>have a fundraising plan in place and regular fundraising<br>meetings.|
|Environmental issues heightening leads to more<br>pressure on the sector|As demand for our services rises, hopefully so too does<br>membership income, enabling us to meet them.  Our strength as a<br>network organisation may be for members to help each other<br>manage the effects of environmental issues on their<br>organisations.|
|The current uncertain geopolitical situation leads<br>to more pressure on the sector|The recent speed and scale of changes means it is hard to<br>understand what the impacts might be or actions we might take.<br>The staff & trustees are prioritising this as an issue and looking to<br>support the sector and our members on it<br>-<br>we are considering<br>se<br>tting<br>up a '<br>’political and social context’ funder<br>interest group to<br>look at these issues collectively.|
