How The Mix makes desicions (and how you can help us)

If you've been around a while you might know this already, but every year, The Mix goes through an annual strategy process. Basically, that means the charity decides what it's going to focus on.
This is a big process and there are lots of things that we might decide to do (or not do!) based on the information we have and what direction we think the charity needs to move in.
If you're in a Youth Voice group, you know something about this - we consult with your groups about our strategies, what you think is important for our services, and The Mix in general.
But probably the biggest thing we use to make decisions is our Annual Survey.
This gets published and promoted on our website once a year, and anyone who uses any part of The Mix can fill it in. We use the data from this survey to decide what The Mix does in the next year (and beyond!). The people who lead The Mix are huge data nerds so it has a lot of influence on the charity.
It's SO HARD to overstate how important this survey is - every response is like gold dust.
But it's not just good for The Mix; it also benefits you. The more data we have about how you use our services, the more informed The Mix will be, and the better our services will hopefully be for you. Everyone at The Mix can do a better job meeting your needs when we have this juicy survey data.
All the responses get reviewed and analysed by our amazing data team, who then come back to us and share the findings. They go through each response so even the little personalised comment bits get seen and recorded as part of the process - nothing gets missed.
SO, all that being said, I have a request... can you guess what it is? 🤔
It would mean the world to us if you could fill out the 2024 Annual Survey
By filling it out you also get entered into a draw to win a £200 Amazon voucher - and you probably have a higher chance to win it than you think!
And just to sweeten the pot a bit more, if you fill out this survey, you can also request the Annual Survey badge which will then display on your profile (if you don't have it already):

All behaviour is a need trying to be met.
The truth resists simplicity.
