Have you been to an ONLINE group, service or event at SWAN since October 2023?
Would you like to take part in an online survey about your experience, and have the chance to win £100 shopping vouchers before Xmas?
Why are we doing this?
Our funders (Inspiring Scotland and Scottish Government) have commissioned an evaluation of the Autistic Adult Support Fund, which funds post diagnosis support projects run by SWAN and 15 other organisations across Scotland.
The evaluation will help demonstrate how valuable and vital this support is, and hopefully help lead to further funding in future.
The evaluation is being carried out by experienced autistic researcher Sinead Assenti, from Assenti Research. We have worked with Sinead at SWAN in the past and she is kind, supportive and generally fantastic, so we trust this work is in really safe hands.
The evaluation is really important to help demonstrate the impact that appropriate support can have for autistic adults, so we're asking you to fill in a survey to tell us about your experiences at SWAN.
The survey is going out to everyone who's accessed support from 15 different organisations across Scotland, and the final report will go to Scottish Government.
The survey is open until the end of February 2025, and each month people who have completed a questionnaire have the option to be entered into a prize draw to win £100 of supermarket shopping e-vouchers - you can choose Tesco, Morrisons, Asda or M&S.
This month's draw will be done on Friday 20th December so the winner will have their chosen voucher before Christmas.
Want to know more?
The evaluation is anonymous and confidential. Your completed questionnaire is sent directly to Sinead at Assenti Research and not to SWAN.
The survey asks for your contact information only if you want to enter the prize draw or if you are willing to volunteer to take part in a research interview. These contact details are not used for any other purpose. When Sinead is reporting on the data she will be looking at all the surveys and not focussing on individual responses.
- The questionnaire should take about 8 minutes to complete. Please note that you cannot save your progress so it’s best to start when you have time to spare.
- PLEASE NOTE: this survey only asks about SWAN's ONLINE SWAN Spaces services - Pre-Diagnosis Drop-in, Post-Diagnosis Course, Webinars, Counselling, 1-2-1 Support, Craft Group, Parent's Group and local ONLINE groups. (It's ok if you've been to an in-person group too, but you'll not be asked about them.)

Many thanks for your help with this important evaluation.
