I have compiled an online survey (see below) which will be open until Monday 19th June, and participants are being offered the chance to enter a prize draw for a £20 Amazon voucher. I have included a blurb below with the link to the survey to be sent out. This research is entirely independent and theoretical, and is not linked to any companies or organisations.
