Play @ Tower View
Questions to answer… Things to think about…
1. To start with… a bit about you
NB. If you’d prefer, you can complete this questionnaire anonymously. But if you do tell us a bit about
you, it’s genuinely very helpful! For instance, we can see whether different age groups like doing
different things. Or whether boys and girls have different opinions about the current play area. And we
promise that we’ll only use your details to help with the project to improve the play area – nothing else
