 About the Survey

The first survey was conducted in 2017/18 and over the years we have been able to look at our own work areas to suit the needs of clubs and settings:

• Planned and delivered a range of workshops
• Developed our mentoring scheme to better meet the challenges settings were facing
• Amended our website to meet the areas of interest
• Launched an online learning platform to host on demand learning
• Work more closely with local partners
• Track trends and work to support them.
