Survey will help build business strategy in Stratford
Stratford District Council is undertaking a detailed survey of local businesses to help compile its Business & Enterprise Strategy.
One of the priorities in the strategy is to engage with businesses so that the council can better understand the state of business in the district and the needs of the business community.
A survey was last sent out in 2013 and now a fresh one has been distributed.
The views of all businesses are important to the council as they can help to influence, shape and inform the development and delivery of current and future plans and strategies.
The council is also interested in receiving comments on the way they administer National Non-Domestic (Business) Rates and on the best ways of supporting businesses in the future.
Paper questionnaires were sent to all businesses in Stratford District on the Business Rate Register in the first week of January. There are spare copies available from the district council - please contact Simon Purfield on 01789 260118 or Claire Haines on 01789 260129 to obtain one.
Alternatively you can visit https://www.stratford.gov.uk/council/business-survey.cfm and complete a form online by Wednesday 3rd February.
All businesses which complete the form will go into a prize draw for two £50 shopping vouchers.
The full report from the survey will be available on the Stratford District Council website by the first week of April.
