Wokingham Young People Survey 2024

Berkshire Youth is a local charity that supports young people across Berkshire, mainly through our youth work projects & programmes.
To help us and our partners, e.g. Police, Parish and Town Councils and voluntary group, to provide services that are important to you, we need to hear from you. It's only by listening to what you've got to say, that we can understand the world as you see it, and make the changes to improve it where we can.

The survey you’re about to complete is for young people aged between 11 and 18 years old and is made up of 25 questions and takes around 5-10 minutes to complete. The survey is anonymous, so please be as honest as you can.

This survey is from Berkshire Youth, Wokingham Borough Council and the Children and Young People’s Partnership. Your responses in this survey will help us to understand current needs and shape future work. As this survey is helping us and our partners with multiple pieces of work there are a variety of areas covered. It's only by listening to what you've got to say, that we can understand the world as you see it and make the changes to improve it where we can.

If you have any questions about this survey, please email admin@berkshireyouth.co.uk

The survey is open until 25th October 2024

Any personal information you choose to provide will be kept confidential and used in accordance with our privacy notice.

Once we gather all feedback, we will create a plan towards supporting young people, opportunities and services.
