Your Voice Matters

Published on 15 August 2025 01:26 PM

We need your help to gather the thoughts and voices of people living in Wakefield and the five towns

Please complete the quick survey and help shape more accessible communities full of opportunities to be physically active for all – and a chance to win a £50 Amazon Voucher if you choose to be entered! Please complete the survey as soon as you can and we really do thank you for your time. There will also be an optional opportunity to be involved in our People’s Voices Panels in the future if you so wish (there will be opportunities for face to face, online and telephone involvement).

We’re part of the exciting Move More Wakefield* Place Partnership, and we’d love to hear from people across our district.

Whether you’re a fitness fan, prefer a gentle stroll, or currently do not move very much at all, your views matter. We’re finding out what helps – and what gets in the way – when it comes to being physically active.

By sharing your views, you’ll help us:

✅ Create more activities and opportunities that suit you

✅ Remove barriers that make it harder to be active

✅ Build an age-friendly Wakefield District where everyone can thrive

Our online survey takes just a few minutes – and when you complete it, you’ll be offered the chance to be entered into a prize draw to win a £50 Amazon gift voucher!**

*Move More Wakefield are seeking to understand resident’s barriers and enablers to physical activity as well as what potential solutions might be put in place to encourage more people to be active. As part of this work, they have commissioned locally trusted organisations, such as Age UK Wakefield District, to support with collecting information from the community. Move More Wakefield is the name of Wakefield’s Place Partnership. Move More Wakefield is managed and overseen by a group of strategic partners which include public sector organisations, voluntary and community organisations, Sport England, Wakefield Council, and West Yorkshire Combined Authority. All comments will be passed through to the Move More Wakefield team anonymously (even if you complete your name for the £50 Amazon voucher prize or for involvement with our Age UK Wakefield District People's Voice Panels in the future) with just the name of Age UK Wakefield District next to the summary results.

**Answers to the questionnaire are only entered into the giveaway during the valid time window, and only if participants input the necessary details.
