Surrey Day Opportunities 2020

Overview

Adult Social Care would like to understand more about what activities, groups and services people aged 60 years and over, who live in Surrey, care about the most or would like to make use of. These will be activities, groups and services that support people to work, contribute to their community and meet and socialise with others. We are particularly interested in what helps residents to stay healthy and active, feel safe, reduce loneliness, and improve general wellbeing.

We want to hear your views about any activity, group or service which could include all forms of exercise, any hobbies, practical support including breaks from caring, inter-generational activities or opportunities to volunteer and be active in your community for example.

The results of the survey will help us to identify areas we can improve, develop, and extend our existing offer to residents.

This is part of our commitment made within the Surrey 2030 Vision:

“By 2030 we want Surrey to be a uniquely special place where everyone has a great start to life, people live healthy and fulfilling lives, are enabled to achieve their full potential and contribute to their community, and no one is left behind”.

Why your views matter

Who is this survey aimed at?

This survey is aimed at any person aged 60 or over who lives and / or works in Surrey.

If you work, we would like to hear about what is important to you outside of your working hours and how you might choose to relax and unwind.

If you are retired, we would like to hear about what activities you enjoy and what encourages you to stay fit and healthy.

We want to know how you currently are, or would like to be, an active member of your local community, either through doing things for or with other people who live near you.

If you use any of our day services, we would be really interested to hear about your experiences; what works, what doesn’t work, and what you would like?

If you look after someone who would not be able to manage without your support, we would like to hear about what currently supports you or what could be of support to you.

It should take no more than 15 minutes to complete this Survey. This questionnaire is completely anonymous, and we will not be able to identify you from your response.
