Citizens Panels
Citizens Surveys
We currently carry out Citizens Surveys each
year, normally two per year, however when we have to take part in
national surveys like the Place Survey we only do one.
The Citizens surveys superseded the Citizens
Panel because the number of responses we were receiving from panel
members was decreasing with each survey. This was despite
refreshing membership on a regular basis. The Citizens survey uses
a random sample of 5,000 which generally results in a return rate
of about 20% or 1,000 surveys. This can vary depending on the
subjects covered by surveys.
So far we have carried out 16 surveys
including those using the Citizens Panel, all under the title “Ask
and Act”.
