Hook Neighbourhood Plan – Employee Survey – 2015
Hart District Council are supporting a Government planning initiative to give businesses,
employees and residents more influence over how the area in which they reside/work
develops in the future. This is called the Neighbourhood Plan.
Hook has started work on a Neighbourhood Plan, run by a Steering Group made up of
residents and representatives from Hook Parish Council. The scope of the
Neighbourhood Plan includes all buildings and the infrastructure required to support
them now and in the future.
The Hook Neighbourhood Plan will be incorporated as part of the wider Hart District
Plan. The policies and specific plans adopted will influence planning decisions affecting
businesses in Hook for many years in the future. Hence, we are very keen, through this
survey, to ensure that we take account of your needs and preferences.
To support the first stage of the Neighbourhood Plan process, we need to establish
what residents, employees and businesses think about Hook. We not only want to know
about the existing facilities and services available in Hook, but also those which will be
required to sustain our community and businesses/workforce in the future. Residents
received a separate survey in December. A separate survey will be running in parallel,
to collect inputs from the businesses. This is the Employee Survey and is dedicated to
finding out what employees think and need.
As someone who works in Hook, we would like your views on what makes Hook a
good place to work. Please will you take a few minutes to complete the survey form
by visiting: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/Hook_Employee_Survey
Alternatively, return this completed questionnaire to the collection boxes in Tesco or
Hook Post Office.
Please return the survey by 17 APRIL 2015
Please note that all data supplied will be treated as confidential and will be anonymised
before being published in a summary form.
If you have any questions or would like any help completing the survey, please contact
[email protected]
Your views are invaluable and your time is much appreciated.
THANK YOU
