Libraries - children and young people version

Overview

Havering Council has launched a crucial new survey aimed at children and young people, inviting them to shape the future of the borough’s library service at a critical point in its history. The ‘SHOUT about Libraries’ survey seeks to gather the opinions of young residents on proposed changes to Havering’s library service, including the potential closure of four branch libraries.

The ‘SHOUT about Libraries’ survey, created in partnership with Mind Of My Own, is designed to be accessible and engaging for a wide age range.

Who is it for?

This survey is for children and young people aged under 18, and up to age 25 with special educational needs.  

How long will it take?

This survey should take no longer than 10 minutes to complete. 

When does it close?

The survey closes on 31 August 2024

There is a frequently asked questions document at the bottom of this page.

Why your views matter

Children and young people who live, work, or study in Havering are encouraged to participate. The results of this survey will help us better understand the impacts on children and young people of closing specific libraries.

The survey has been designed in conjunction with the Council’s ongoing public consultation on the draft library strategy.
