Hi one and all!
Firstly let me introduce myself: My name is Ruth and I am the daughter of a Preservation Railway Volunteer. I am currently completing the dissertation part of my Masters in Heritage and Museum Studies and I have chosen to look at the satisfaction levels of Volunteers in the East Anglia, South and South Eastern regions. Do you give time to/recently volunteered at any of these railways?
Appleby-Frodingham Railway, Bluebell Railway, Buckinghamshire Railway Centre, Bressingham Steam Museum, Bure Valley Railway, Bredgar & Wormshill Light Railway, Colne Valley Railway, Chinnor & Princes Risborough Light Railway, Cholsey & Wallingford Railway Preservation Society, Dean Forest Railway, East Hayling Light Railway, East Kent Railway, Great Northern & East Lincolnshire Railway, Great Whipsnade Railway, Gloucestershire & Warwickshire Railway, Hythe Pier Trams, Isle of Wight Steam Railway, Kent & East Sussex Railway, Leighton Buzzard Railway, Lavender Line, Lincolnshire Wolds Railway, Mid-Hants Railway, Mid-Norfolk Railway, North Ings Farm Museum, North Norfolk Railway, Nene Valley Railway, Rother Valley Railway, Rural Life Centre, Steams Dreams (the Cathedral Express), Sittingbourne & Kelmsley Light Railway, Swindon & Cricklade Railway, Volks Railway
If so, I would really like to hear your opinions good or bad! It doesnt matter if you are a trustee, manager, paid or unpaid, your views matter. During chats with volunteers Ive noticed that the Preservation Railway sector is largely neglected and I want to help set this right by bringing this to the attention of a wider audience, but I need your help!
All you need to do is spend 5 minutes filling in a quick questionnaire; there will be no expenditure to yourself and although personal info is requested, it will not be made public in anyway. I take confidentiality seriously! Please take time to read the participant info form before completing either of the forms as it contains information you need to know. There is one for trustees and one for volunteers:

Thank you for taking the time to read this rather long post and I look forward to receiving your replies, the last date I can accept forms is 30th December, 2008.
Merry Xmas!
