DCMS has commissioned the survey to better understand the needs of its stakeholders. It’s encouraging organisations in the digital, culture, media, sport, gambling, telecoms, tourism and charitable sectors to respond.

The data will be used to understand how these sectors have been impacted by disruption from COVID-19, and how they have been engaging with the Government’s financial schemes and other interventions.

The survey will take around 10-20 minutes to complete, and your answers will remain anonymous.
