Ecorys is an independent research organisation. We carry out a wide range of different surveys to help national and local government and third sector organisations better understand society and the economy and to improve their services. We are a Member of the Market Research Society, the professional body for the research sector. Why have I been chosen to take part? To make our findings best reflect the whole of society, we interview a diverse sample of people from all walks of life. Often this involves randomly selecting address from a list of postcodes. Taking part in our surveys is entirely voluntary. Please simply tell our researcher if you do not wish to take part and they will respect your decision without asking any further questions. How do I know if the researcher is genuine? All Ecorys interviewers involved in face to face interviews will present an identify card with their photo and name.
