Frequently Asked Questions

Once every four months.

For most, the survey will take between 10 and 15 minutes to complete each time.

You complete the survey online. A link to the latest edition of the survey will be emailed to you once it is live.

A complete picture of the sector is crucial to the success of the project and so we ask, where possible, that members submit a response for as many surveys as possible. We appreciate that this will not always be possible due to a change in roles, leave or illness. In these cases, we would ask for another colleague to complete the survey in your absence.

If you leave your organisation altogether, please let us know and we can organise for someone else in the organisation to take your place in the community.

Finally, in the very unfortunate circumstance that your organisation stops operating at any point during the next 6 months, we would be very grateful if you could let us know, so that we know not to continue to contact you.
