The Crichton Business Community Survey-Ladyfield Housing Need Research

Background to questionnaire

This survey is being administered by South of Scotland Community Housing (SOSCH) on behalf of The Crichton Trust to understand the resident business community’s growth plans, including staff recruitment and retainment. We will use this data to help inform master plans for the Ladyfield site, which intends to create additional housing to meet local community need. This includes, in part, new homes for employees and key industry staff. We are requesting your input into this survey to understand how additional homes could help meet specific staff and business needs.

The survey takes 3-5 minutes to complete and will remain open until Friday July 29, 2022.

If you have any questions about the research or how the responses will be used, please contact Annabel Pidgeon at: annabel.sosch@outlook.com.
