Mayo County Council, in partnership with Mayo Sports Partnership, is leading on the development of a Local Sports Plan for the County. This plan reflects our commitment Under Action 8 of National Sports Policy 2018-27. The following survey provides an opportunity for all people across the County, regardless of age, gender, ethnic background, ability or location to help us to develop a Plan which reflects your aspirations and requirements for sports and physical activity.
This is part of a wider consultation process which will also include public information sessions held in each Municipal District across the County in October. Details of these public events will be advertised through Mayo County Council and Mayo Sports Partnership in due course.
Participating in the survey
Participation in this survey is entirely voluntary. If you decide to answer the questions you can still change your mind. You can stop at any time and your responses will remain entirely anonymous. We will seek to ascertain your current level of activity, your views on sports facilities across Mayo, what we are doing well, any existing barriers you feel that hold you back from being more active and what you would like to see in the future. We will also ask a few additional questions on your views and current behaviour with regards to active travel.
The full survey should take between 10-15 minutes to complete, depending on the level of information you would like to provide.
What we do with the information you provide
During this survey, you will be asked about your age, gender, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation. The reason for asking these questions is that we understand that barriers and challenges may be different for different people. These insights will allow us to filter results and identify which challenges and barriers are most applicable to each target group. Information is gathered via this survey for the purpose of informing the development of the Local Sports Plan only, information will not be used in conjunction with any other purpose.
If you feel there are other questions or information that would help us, please add them at the end of the survey.
Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey. We greatly appreciate your input.
