Indicators of the Quality of Life in your Neighbourhood Survey 2008
During September over 20,000 randomly selected households in Bristol will receive this questionnaire. It asks questions about the quality of neighbourhoods and lifestyles. This is the eighth year the survey has been carried out and the results help the council and its partners improve the local environment and quality of life in the city. It is one of the biggest ward surveys ever undertaken. Find out more.
