BSL Version - Event Engagement Survey: About your experiences

Overview

It is important to us that we understand the experiences of the public and listen to their views about the way we police events in Scotland. For this reason, we want to hear from those who have attended or experienced events in Scotland recently. 

What is an event?

By 'event', we mean a gathering of people who come together for organised social, cultural or entertainment purposes such as festivals, concerts, sports or parades, or to engage in activity to express views or show support for a cause important to them (sometimes people call these protests or demonstrations).

We also want to hear from people who experience events but are not attendees. For example, you may live close to where an event takes place and are able to provide feedback.

Responses to the survey are totally anonymous and we don't collect any information in this survey which may identify you.
