In Touch Survey – Your Questions Answered
The RFUW ran an online survey in November 2007. We received a significant number of responses and we have pulled out some key areas that we think we can address immediately for the game.
We will be using this survey going forward to help shape our decision making processes.
Thank you to all those who took part
