Rosa have publishing a report from Pro Bono Economics that Rosa commissioned to better understand the challenges facing our sector.

- 52% cite funding sources as their top concern
- 59% do not have sufficient staff to meet their organisation’s objectives
- 26% Black and/or minoritised women and girls’ organisations cite rising costs as a top concern
