Participant information
What is the purpose of this survey?
This survey has been designed by Will Behenna from the Beach Access Project, an organisation dedicated to enabling people with medical / mental health conditions and disabilities (PMHCD), to better access beaches and blue space in the UK. The research aims to better understand your experience of using an accessible beach site including the water. Your feedback will be vital in shaping future beach access in the UK.
You have been invited to take part because you visited a beach access location and identified yourself as having a medical / mental health condition and or disability or you are completing this questionnaire on behalf of someone who has.
The online survey will take around 5 minutes to complete.
