For all three of the polls taken this year it was possible for each member present to cast a vote for more than one item. There were about 80 people present at the time the time the poll was conducted on 2 September, but only 17 people present for the poll taken on 5 August as it was conducted at the very end of a long evening. We will continue to hold these polls periodically so that we can assess changing attitudes as the sector grows.
