VILLAGE QUESTIONNAIRE
 The SG members discussed each question with regard to their relevance, wording and general impressions. Alterations/amendments were made as deemed necessary to refine the document.

Other comments raised were:

The document should include some form of confidentiality statement.

There should be a map of the Conservation Area available for villagers to refer to. Richard Squires will be contacted to request permission to reproduce the map on the village website. Other locations will be investigated.

The possibility of an online questionnaire is still being investigated.

Selected villagers will be asked to ‘trial’ the questionnaire to gain feedback on the format, content and ease of use.

The numbering method for questionnaires to enable the prize draw to take place was mentioned and this will be discussed at the next meeting.

The length of the questionnaire was discussed but it was felt that the covering letter explains the need for such a detailed document.

Action:
Contact Richard Squires re map KR
