Survey interaction
The main consultation was delivered through the Southend-on-Sea Borough Council online consultation portal. A total of 1,600 people accessed the campaign of that 636 responded online, the rest were aware, informed but chose not to comment or rank the logos, at the peak of the consultation it got over 500 visits per day.
