Community Wellbeing Survey

As part of a renewal of the existing Community Plans, we are engaging the community to share their feedback on their current wellbeing and priorities for the future.

When we say "your community", we are asking about the place where you live. This means your local government area (LGA), either Circular Head or Waratah Wynyard, and/or the part of it you know best, and places and services near your local government area you spend time in or access.

2.How old are you?
