Have your say about important issues

At YouGov you can have your say on important issues by completing simple surveys.

I have been a member of YouGov for a while and find the surveys interesting. I feel like I just might be making a difference!

Here is some info taken from their website describing exactly what they do, it's a bit lengthy but well worth a read:

How it works
As a member of the YouGov Panel you will be invited from time-to-time to participate in surveys on topics ranging from from politics to painkillers to pensions. Each time you take part in a survey, you will have your virtual YouGov account credited with cash amounts depending on the survey's length, or you may be entered into a prize draw. When you reach £50 in your account, YouGov will send you a cheque for that amount.
Your account will be credited with your first £1 for registering.

Who reads the findings?
Who reads research findings depends on the client who has commissioned the research. Sometimes research is commissioned specially for publication. This is often the case with our media clients and you may see the results of our surveys in newspapers and on television. In other cases, research is used internally by a client for example, in order to inform a marketing or policy decision. In this case, the research is not usually made publicly available. Published results can be viewed in our published results archive.

Is YouGov a Government initiative?
YouGov is an independent research agency. It is not funded, run by, or affiliated to the Government or any Government agencies. As a research agency, we are commissioned by a wide range of clients from media, to academics, to companies, to not-for-profit organisations. YouGov therefore aims to provide accurate and high quality research to all our clients, allowing YouGov panel members the chance to voice their opinions on a wide range of topics.
