Description

• I designed a questionnaire.
• I gave the questionnaire to 10 of my neighbours
  in my road.
• I looked at all the responses and comments.
• I have made slides of the results to share with
  you.

12
THESE ARE THE HOUSES I DELIVERED A QUESTIONNAIRE
TO.

• I chose houses at the top and bottom of my road.
• I chose houses which can see the green and some
  which cannot.
• I chose some neighbours who I knew would respond.

THIS IS MY QUESTIONNAIRE

• How often do you use the green each week ?
• Is the green important to you and why ?
• Could the green be improved.

IMPROVEMENTS TO THE GREEN

  the dog walkers often pick up litter to make it
  safer for the animals.

  SAFETY.
