About you

We want to hear from as many people as possible from all parts of Bristol, so we can understand all viewpoints.

It would be very helpful if you could complete the following ‘About You’ questions. This will help us ensure that no-one is discriminated against unlawfully and will help us see if people in different parts of Bristol and different circumstances have different views. The questions include each of the protected characteristics in the Equality Act 2010.

All questions are optional. You can skip any questions you do not wish to answer and, if you choose not to answer any questions in this section, please click 'skip this step'.

Information provided will be treated in the strictest confidence and in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR). Personal and sensitive information will be used solely for the purpose of equalities monitoring to ensure that everyone is treated fairly.

Our privacy policy, which explains how we will process your personal information, how long we will retain it and your rights as a data subject is available here.
