Community Group Survey

At Newport City Homes (NCH), we know that Community Groups play a vital role in delivering varied services and supporting people from all walks of life across Newport. We want to help support Newport’s Community Groups to be sustainable and have a positive impact in the area they serve.

NCH wants to support the fantastic Community Groups of Newport to thrive. We are asking Community Group representatives to share some brief information about their Group (e.g. size, services offered, challenges) so we can better understand their needs and how NCH can best support them.

This survey should take no longer than 5-10 minutes to complete. Your response will be treated in confidence and your personal details will not be shared. For more information about how we use your data search ‘legal’ on our website (www.newportcityhomes.com).

If you would prefer to take part over the phone or if you would like to meet us we are happy to meet in person to get a wider understanding of your group - please contact community.development@newportcityhomes.com or call 01633 227808.
