Tracker Survey

We're looking for people with sight loss to complete our quarterly Connect Voices Tracker survey.

For the latest survey we are focusing on blind and partially sighted people's experiences of getting around, personal safety, employment, family and relationships. There are also some questions about motherhood.

Participants who complete the survey will also be invited to take part in four short surveys a year where you can tell us about your experiences and views, helping to shape and direct our work on an ongoing basis.

For more information, here are details and a series of FAQs about the survey and panel.

Do you want your voice to be heard and have the opportunity to shape the work of RNIB?

We’d love to hear from people who are interested in taking part in our regular focus groups where we will be discussing the things that matter to our customers. We’re looking for a broad range of blind and partially sighted people from across the UK to take part in a series of online focus groups. There will be two sessions, each lasting approximately two hours 15 minutes (15 minute break included).

If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, please register your interest by completing our short online form. Or you can call the RNIB Helpline on 0303 123 9999 where you can ask to sign up to the Voice of the Customer Focus Groups. If you have any queries, please contact [email protected].
