Residents Survey 2021 - Ask Cardiff - Cardiff Council
Ask Cardiff is an annual survey undertaken by Cardiff Council. The survey gives people living and working in
Cardiff and those visiting the city the chance to share their experiences of public services: the good experiences
and where things could be improved.

Your experiences and ideas for your neighbourhood, as well as Cardiff as a whole, are really important to help us
plan the future of our city. We want to hear from as many people as possible, please encourage your friends,
family and neighbours to complete the survey - all ages, all backgrounds and from all areas of the city.

By taking around 20 minutes to complete this survey, you will
help us to:
- better understand how people experience the city and our
  public services.
- understand what is important to you and your local community.
- make changes and improvements to our city’s public services.

Last year almost 5,000 people shared their views with us -
make sure your voice is heard.

You can enter the Prize Draw to win one of ten £40 Love2Shop
Vouchers, which can be spent in a wide variety of high
street shops.

The survey is open until 28th November 2021
