Voluntary Arts launched the Big Conversation 2017 in October, aiming to capture the scale of creative participation across the nations. As the voice of a huge and diverse sector involving millions of people who regularly participate in creative activities, we are beginning a new, annual consultation to gauge the scale, mood and requirements of these groups and individuals.
The Big Conversation has already attracted almost 1,000 responses from across the UK and Ireland and will provide invaluable information on how, where and why people are taking part in creative activities, or indeed, why they are not. It is a chance for everyone to share what they do, what they would like to do, what assistance or guidance they feel they need and how Voluntary Arts can better support and represent their interests.
The initial survey is available at voluntary arts.org/big conversation and takes only 4 minutes. It is open to anyone to complete – regardless of occupation, location, age or experience of creative activities. One lucky participant will also win a brand new Amazon Fire 7 tablet as a thank you for taking part.
