Winter visitor survey in the Forest
We are creating a Forest that benefits people, so hearing from our visitors is important to us. From the 14th-16th January, the Heart of England Forest will be conducting in-person visitor surveys in all six of its car parks.
Learning more about our visitors
From the 14th – 16th January, the Heart of England Forest team will be speaking with visitors to find out more about them and why they visit. The surveys will give visitors the opportunity to meet members of the charity team and share their views on their Forest experience.
Your feedback matters
We are hard at work creating a Forest for people to enjoy, so hearing from our visitors is important to us. During the survey weekend, members of the charity team will be in all the Forest car parks equipped with visitor surveys to learn more about who visits the Forest and why. We are excited to have this opportunity to get out into the Forest and engage with our supporters face to face.
The aims of the survey are to learn more about our visitors, why they visit the Forest, and their awareness of the charity and our work. This valuable data will help with future planning to maximise the potential of the Forest as a place for people and wildlife to enjoy. So, if you are out walking in the Forest during the weekend of the 14th - 16th January, please stop and have a chat with us.
Connecting more people to nature
As well as providing the charity with its own evaluation, the data gathered from the survey will also form part of the research we are carrying out to help evaluate our ground-breaking Green Recovery Challenge Fund (GRCF) project. One of the commitments we made as part of the project was connecting more people to nature.
Complete our online survey
If you are a Forest visitor but not visiting this weekend, the survey is also available online from Friday 14th to Sunday 16th January. Please take part so your voice is heard.
