Business survey

Clackmannanshire and Stirling’s Employer Engagement Forum has put together a survey for businesses in the area.

It is aimed at shaping business support in areas including skills, recruitment, health, workplace learning, specialist advice, and funding.

It follows a survey completed by 130 sole traders and businesses last year.

Stirling Council has since provided funding to hire researcher Bryan Quinn to build upon work carried out last year.

Mr Quinn said this week: “This survey is for every business in Stirling and Clackmannanshire, big or small, even if you are sole trader operating without any staff.

“By taking just a few minutes to complete the survey, businesses will be helping to make sure that the appropriate support is being provided to help local businesses to thrive.”

If you run a business in the Stirling or Clackmannanshire area you can complete the survey by going to https:// www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/VJKNH79. The survey will be open until December.

The Clackmannanshire and Stirling Employer Engagement Forum includes around 20 organisations, including both local authorities, who provide business support and training in the area.

A report will be published, and a follow up event is planned for next year.
