Helensburgh and Lomond Area Community Planning Group Meeting
Survey Results 
This report relates to the results of a Meeting Survey carried out following agreement
at the August meeting of the Helensburgh and Lomond Area Community Planning
Group (H&L ACPG). 
Summary 
At the H&L ACPG meeting held on 23 August 2022, it was agreed that a survey
would be carried out in advance of the next meeting of the Group to gain feedback
from partners on future meeting arrangements 
The results of this survey can be found at Appendix 1 of this report and feedback in
relation to comments provided by partners can be found at Appendix 2.   
Recommendations 
The Helensburgh and Lomond Area Community Planning Group are asked: 
1. to note the results of the survey; 
2. to consider and discuss the ways in which the results of the survey could be
used to best facilitate increased partner attendance at Group meetings going
forward;
3. agree that a review of the arrangements is carried out in a year’s time. 
Key Points for Consideration 
 The survey was issued on the 14th September 2022, with a deadline of 7th
October 2022. The survey was sent to the entire Group membership, in total
33 people responded to the survey. 
 Feedback in relation to the meetings is that a majority of respondents would
like the option for either face to face or Hybrid meetings.
 Respondents were also happy to continue with daytime meetings with the
majority in favour of morning meetings – there were no respondents who
requested evening meetings.
 A majority of respondents have indicated that they would like to offer the
opportunity to return to meetings taking place in other venues around the area
– but with the option to have Hybrid arrangements in place.  This would
require any venue to have a reliable and robust broadband connection.
 In terms of respondents there were a variety of partners who responded as
can be seen from the results.
