You may remember that in our last bulletin we informed you that SRN has commissioned Jacki Gordon + Associates to carry out research to identify and explore people's awareness and views on SRN current communications (e.g. booklets, website etc). This research includes a survey that takes a maximum of eight minutes to complete and is filled out online. Over 300 have completed the survey so far, so thank you if you are one of these. The researchers are keen (as are we at SRN) to hear from you irrespective of whether you know a lot about SRN's work or hardly anything at all, and have therefore extended the deadline for filling out the survey to 28th July. Please note that all survey responses will be anonymous unless you choose to provide your contact details. If you decide to provide your name, only the researchers will see this. No names will be used in the research report and the findings will be written in a way that protects anonymity. We hope that you will help us with this important research by filling out the survey if you have not already done so. Click here to access the survey. Thank you for giving us your time and views. |
