The Role of the Troon Community Council

The vision for South Ayrshire communities is that everyone is supported to ‘Grow Well, Live Well and Age Well’. As part of our aspirations for our communities, South Ayrshire Health and Social Care Partnership is keen to hear the views of the community in relation to services for women and children affected by domestic abuse. This survey should only take about 5 minutes to complete and responses are anonymous.

Please see the link below and attached QR code for sharing with your wider networks.  We appreciate that this is a very sensitive topic so please do not pass the survey on for completion, if you think it may cause harm.
