Survey-General Audience

We have created two surveys to find out what people in Baldock think of the community, how they think it could be improved and to see whether they like our idea of a new youth club. This survey was aimed at a general audience and we asked questions to find out if they agreed Baldock needed a youth club and whether they would participate in the regeneration of an area to do this.

 We gave the public options for the majority of the questions but left a couple open-ended in case they had any ideas that were dramatically different from our own.

We got a range of results from this survey, however the vast majority thought that young people did need somewhere to go, they liked the idea of setting up a youth club and were prepared to volunteer to help re-generate an area to do this.
