The 2018 Regional Wellbeing Survey is now open – please consider taking part!

Do the survey online at www.regionalwellbeing.org.au

Call 1800 981 499 if you’d like a paper survey, or for help with the survey.

The Regional Wellbeing Survey’s mission is to support research that improves the wellbeing and quality of life of people living in rural and regional Australia. Your participation in the survey makes a difference, as it means we can produce data communities can use to inform their planning and decision making, as well as organisations ranging from the National Farmers Federation to  local government authorities (check out the reports and data on our website). This year we have a special section asking about drought, where we ask people who are experiencing drought (or have in the past) about what types of support were most useful, and ask everyone else their views about drought support. This will be used to produce a special report on supporting rural communities through drought.

All survey participants aged 18 or over can enter the draw to win one of 16 prizes worth a total of $7,000. Winners will have their choice of a Flight Centre, Coles-Myer, WISH or Bunnings gift card, to the following value: First prize: $2,000; Second prize: $1,000; third to eighth prize: $500; 10 runner-up prizes of $100.

The survey is voluntary, confidential and anonymous, and closes on 14 December 2018, at midnight. Thank you for taking the time to participate and sharing your valuable insights.
