In December 2022 we sent out a survey with the aim of gathering feedback from our levy paying businesses, as we begin the process of putting together a Business Plan for a third five year term which will run from April 2024 – March 2029.
Levy paying businesses will receive this new Business Plan in summer 2023 and a ballot will be held in October 2023.
The Aim of the Survey
The Survey was created with the aim of:
- getting a feel from levy payers as to which of the projects we have undertaken during the last 4 years have benefitted businesses
- which have done less so, and
- what levy payers would like more and less of and what the priorities for businesses are looking forward.
How the Survey Was Distributed & Response Rate
The Survey went out 3 times to all levy payers on our mailing list (447 email addresses), as well as going out multiple times via our social media platforms.
We received 38 replies, an 8.5% response rate.

The results of the Survey, together with businesses comments and our responses, are available to view BELOW.
