Survey on the Impact of the Cost of Living Crisis

Introduction
We’d like to invite you to take part in a short survey about the cost of living crisis, how your migration status may be affecting how you are managing the crisis, how this is impacting your life, and what you want to see change.

The cost of living crisis is affecting millions of Britons and migrants across the UK, with women, those from ethnically diverse communities and those relying on benefits being worst affected. Migrants are not unique in facing the cost of living crisis, but there can be additional challenges, due to restrictions on visas, the level of asylum support or NRPF conditions, or having to pay thousands of pounds in visa fees, that affect how some groups of migrants can manage the increased cost of living.
 
The aim of this short survey is for us to understand more about how migration status intersects with the cost of living crisis. This is to help us shape our work and campaigns to call for changes.
 
The survey should take no more than 15 minutes to complete

Who can take part?
 
Anyone who is 18 years of age and above, who has moved to the UK from another country or the family member of someone who has moved to the UK.
 
If you are from an organisation, or an immigration advisor who would like to share an experience of one of your clients, email us at campaigns@migrantvoice.org with the case studies and experiences you want to raise.
Taking part in the survey is voluntary and you can withdraw your data at any time by simply emailing campaigns@migrantvoice.org 
What will happen to the information I give? 
 
Your responses will be treated with confidentiality, i.e. anonymously.

The purpose is to gather information to inform and shape our work and campaigning. Your answers may be presented in statistical and anonymised form (in a report, briefing or campaign materials, for example X% of those surveyed said they had faced X challenges and were calling for the following changes…).
 
You will be asked in the survey if you wish to support and be part of the work in a variety of ways – as part of this you will be asked if you want to share your name and contact details with us. This section will be stored separately from the rest of your answers.
