Survey of Herefordshire communities

Talk Community at Herefordshire Council have launched a survey to find out how we can best support you and your community.

How we may contact you to invite you to take part

DJS Research will contact a representative sample of residents between January and 31 March 2023, on behalf of Herefordshire Council / Talk Community, to invite them to participate in the survey. The contact will either be by telephone or in person by interviews in the street.

The survey consists of a series of questions and will take no more than 20 minutes. It will be conducted under the Market Research Society Rules which guarantee anonymity. This means that all responses will be confidential and no information that can identify individuals will be passed to any other organisation without the permission of the person taking part in the survey.

DJS Research employees will not ask for financial details and people are reminded never to give out bank details over the telephone.

Why we are conducting this survey

Through Talk Community, Herefordshire Council work in partnership with Herefordshire residents, businesses, community groups, and others whose support is instrumental to enable people and their families to lead healthy and independent lives within their communities. To support this work, we want to refresh our understanding of Herefordshire’s diverse communities, including residents’ perceptions about how resilient they are and how they currently use their local area and interact in their communities.

Thank you in advance for taking part.

How we will use the information we gather

The results of the survey will be published on the Understanding Herefordshire website later this year and will be used by the council to identify trends and areas for attention in local communities.
